This latest in the series of publications of the field work of the
Epigraphic Survey is certainly the crowning achievement of the
seventy years the Oriental Institute's artists and epigraphers have
labored at the walls of the temples and tombs of Luxor, recording
the inscriptions and reliefs in facsimile for posterity. Not only
is The Festival Procession of Opet the Survey's largest volume to
date, it is also the most sophisticated in terms of the finesse of
the rendering of the facsimile drawings with indications of the
different types of man-made and environmental damage suffered by
the complicated surviving Luxor Temple Colonnade Hall reliefs
indicated in minute details - which must have taken countless hours
of inking by the many Survey artists (eighteen by actual count) who
worked six months in the field each year recording the Opet
Festival reliefs from 1974 to 1992. From a book brief in KMT 5:4
(1994/95) 86]. The portfolio of large drawings is accompanied by a
text booklet, which has a list of plates, transliterations and
translations of the texts, commentary and glossary.
