Description

The author approaches the issue of 'narrative' in Egyptian art and the question of whether there is "an air of actuality" or "a general and conventional manner" in certain Old Kingdom tomb scenes. The discussion focuses on a selection of scenes (desert hunt, voyage scenes, boating scenes in the marshes) from the tombs of Mereruka, Remni, and Mehu.
