EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back in time to Ancient Egypt, specifically around 2000 B. C. The image showcases an intricate wall painting that depicts an essential tool of the era - the Egyptian balance. This bronze age instrument was used for measuring and weighing various items. In this scene, two men are depicted wearing traditional loincloths, standing beside a large wall adorned with hieroglyphics. One man holds a stylus and appears to be a scribe or writer, while the other grasps the Egyptian balance itself. The balance consists of two pans hanging from either side of a central beam, which is supported by an upright pillar. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every line and stroke brings life to this ancient scene. It offers us insight into the daily lives and practices of North African civilizations during that time period. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at how advanced these societies were thousands of years ago. From their sophisticated writing systems to their precise measurement tools like the Egyptian balance, they laid foundations for future civilizations to build upon. This print serves as a reminder of our shared human history and allows us to appreciate the ingenuity and creativity that flourished in Ancient Egypt over four millennia ago.
