Le scribe qui dessine

The art of drawing was of enormous importance in Ancient Egypt. Outline drawings made with a pen or brush formed the basis of all pictorial representations during the pharaonic period, whether paintings, bas-reliefs, statues or even architecture. Even Egyptian writing consisted exclusively of images. The art of drawing was practiced in Egypt for almost three millennia according to precisely defined rules.
