EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient Egyptian god Amun, also known as Amon, Ammon, and Amen. The image is a reproduction of an engraving by Alphonse Duchesne from Jean Francois Champollion's renowned 19th-century work "Monuments de l'Egypte et de la Nubie". Amun was a significant deity in the ancient Egyptian pantheon and held great importance throughout their history. As the god of air and wind, he was often depicted with a tall plumed crown symbolizing his power over these elements. This particular illustration beautifully captures his regal presence and divine aura. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every line and curve meticulously engraved to bring out the essence of Amun's majestic figure. It serves as a testament to both the skill of Alphonse Duchesne as an engraver and Champollion's dedication to documenting Egypt's rich cultural heritage. This print offers us a glimpse into ancient Egypt's religious beliefs and artistic traditions. It transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the intricate beauty that adorned their temples and tombs. As we admire this archival piece, we are reminded of how art can bridge gaps between civilizations separated by centuries or even millennia. It invites us to delve deeper into history, sparking curiosity about the people who worshipped Amun thousands of years ago. Ken Welsh has expertly preserved this historical gem for our enjoyment today – an invaluable addition to any collection celebrating Egypt
