Papyrus from Egypt

For more than 6,000 years the civilization of Egypt has grown and flourished along the nourishing waters of the Nile. Those same waters provided nourishment to the reeds of the papyrus plants, from which the first paper was created, and upon which early Egyptian artists created paintings depicting the mysterious forces which ruled their world.

Today, Egyptian artists carefully labor to re-create the images recovered from their ancient past. We select some of the most colorful of these re-created art works to offer to you at Bellissimo!.
