Selective catalogue of Egyptian antiquities from the collection of Sayed Pasha Khashaba, Assiut, Upper Egypt William C. Hayes
A 1931 selective catalogue by William C. Hayes, an Egyptologist working in the United States, recording antiquities from the collection of Sayed Pasha Khashaba at Assiut in Upper Egypt. The photographs show carved stone and wooden coffins and sarcophagi photographed as museum-style documentary views. For a designer, they offer ancient Egyptian funerary sculpture: stylised faces, flat relief decoration and the elongated human silhouette of the coffin lid.
