EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian art. The image features a crook and flail, two significant emblems used in the coronation ceremony of pharaohs during the New Kingdom period (c. 1370-1352 BC). Crafted with meticulous detail, this particular crook and flail is made from blue glass, obsidian, and gold mounted on bronze. The crook symbolizes authority and leadership, while the flail represents power and dominion. These emblems were associated with Osiris, the god of death and resurrection in Egyptian mythology. As such, they held immense religious significance for the pharaohs who believed themselves to be divine rulers. Measuring 33.5 cm in length, this artifact now resides in the Egyptian National Museum located in Cairo, Egypt. Its preservation allows us to marvel at its beauty thousands of years after it was created by skilled artisans from the 18th Dynasty (c. 1567-1320 BC). Through this print captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness a piece of ancient history that has shaped our understanding of one of civilization's most fascinating cultures - Ancient Egypt. It serves as a reminder of their rich artistic heritage and their deep spiritual beliefs that continue to captivate people around the world today.
