EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Scarab bracelet, discovered in the Tomb of Tutankhamun during the New Kingdom era. Crafted by skilled artisans of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this exquisite piece is made from gold and lapis lazuli, radiating an aura of opulence and grandeur. Measuring at a diameter of 5.4 cm, this stunning artifact now resides in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo, Egypt. Its intricate design features a scarab beetle motif, symbolizing the revered sun god in ancient Egypt. The scarab was believed to possess powerful protective qualities and was often associated with rebirth and eternal life. The craftsmanship displayed on this bracelet is truly awe-inspiring. Delicate carnelian, quartz, turquoise, and beetle-shaped elements are meticulously inlaid into the golden surface, creating a mesmerizing mosaic-like effect that catches every glimmer of light. This print not only captures the beauty of this historic treasure but also offers us a glimpse into Tutankhamun's reign as King of Ancient Egypt from c. 1341-1323 BC. It serves as a testament to his wealth and influence during one of history's most fascinating periods. As we admire this magnificent piece through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back thousands of years to witness firsthand the artistry and symbolism that defined ancient Egyptian culture.
