William Matthew Flinders Petrie
Published by pioneering archaeologist Flinders Petrie (1853–1942) in 1895, these lectures explore the historical development of ancient Egyptian decorative art. By examining and illustrating its geometrical, natural, structural and symbolic patterns, Petrie argues that ancient Egyptian artistry influences much modern-day design.
