"The Egyptians and the Gifts of the Nile" brings together various insights into the arts of ancient Egypt, including architecture, sculpture, and painting, as well as the so-called minor arts such as coroplastics, cabinetmaking, jewelry, and materiality. The historical period covered is vast, ranging from the Predynastic Period (3600–3200 BCE) to the Greco-Roman Period (330 BCE–642 CE), illustrated through a selection of artifacts from the Museo Egizio in Turin. The catalogue highlights these works of art through essays dedicated to the early studies of material culture and the individuals who created these objects, which have since become archaeological finds. The descriptive entries detail their provenance, recount anecdotes related to their discovery, and provide insights into the techniques, styles, and functions of the objects, placing them within their historical context.
