EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of animal carvings from the New Kingdom and Late Period in ancient Egypt. Taken in 1936, this image is found in the esteemed Agyptisches Museum in Berlin. The plate was featured in the renowned book "The Art of Ancient Egypt" published by Phaidon Press. In this vibrant composition, we are transported to a time long ago, where intricate carvings brought animals to life with remarkable detail. Amongst them, we can spot a hedgehog, an ape, and a baboon - each meticulously crafted to capture their unique characteristics. The feline carvings steal our attention as they proudly display their regal heads. Cats were highly revered creatures in ancient Egyptian culture, symbolizing protection and fertility. Their presence here reflects the deep connection between humans and animals during that era. The color palette chosen for this print enhances its allure; warm earth tones bring out the richness of these ancient artworks while adding depth to their historical significance. As we gaze upon these masterful creations through time's lens, we are reminded of Egypt's rich artistic heritage and its profound influence on world art history. This print serves as both an educational tool and a visual delight for anyone captivated by ancient civilizations or simply seeking beauty within nature's diverse kingdom.
