Beschreibung

This catalogue is the first of three volumes presenting the (so far) unpublished part of the large collection of Late Antique to Early Islamic textiles from Egypt in the Museum für Byzantinische Kunst Berlin. Complete garments, cloth assemblages from burials, and rarities both in textile function and technique will be important objects for the further study of ancient textiles.
A photo and a technical analysis accompany each of the 173 catalogue entries. The object description puts special emphasis on the function of the individual cloth. Introductory essays about origin, techniques, construction of garments, iconography and dating of the textiles, as well as an article about the dye analysis, summarize the various researches undertaken. Explanatory drawings, a glossary, a large bibliography and 16 colour plates make the catalogue pleasant to handle.

Rezensionen

"The authors of this book are to be commended for their very thorough cataloguing of a difficult group of material, which included some textiles lost in World War II and known only from old records and photographs. While a great range of Coptic textiles is published here, many, apart from a few complete tunics and costume accessories, are in very fragmentary condition. They would be hard to understand without prior knowledge of more complete examples. The highly detailed and abbreviated technical descriptions will be accessible only to textile specialists. The bibliography is very complete and useful, while both the black-and-white and color photographs are very good.
This book will be of interest primarily to those with some knowledge

of Coptic textiles. It would be a valuable addition to a specialized or university library." (In: Journal of Near Eastern Studies. 63 (2004). 1. S. 44-45)"Compètent cet ouvrage abondamment illustré de photos en noir et blanc mais aussi de dessins, un glossaire technique (qui est le bienvenu), une abondante bibliographie, ainsi qu une table de concordance entre les n° du catalogue et ceux de l inventaire du musée. Sieze planches en couleurs d excellente qualité ferment cet excellent catalogue. On ne peut qu encourager les auteurs à poursuivre leurs recherches et à nous donner d uatres livres de ce genre."
