The Throne of Tutankhamun - A Majestic Symbol of Ancient Egyptian Power and Opulence
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the awe-inspiring throne of Tutankhamun, a remarkable artifact from the New Kingdom period in ancient Egypt. Crafted during the 18th Dynasty, this magnificent piece is made of gold-plated wood adorned with exquisite semi-precious stones. Standing at an impressive height of 114 centimeters and measuring 53 by 63 centimeters in width, it now resides in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. The intricate design features arms shaped like winged serpents, adding an air of mystique to its already regal presence. Unearthed from the antechamber of Tutankhamun's tomb located in the renowned Valley of the Kings, this throne holds immense historical significance. It serves as a testament to the wealth and power that surrounded this young pharaoh during his reign. The lion motifs on both sides symbolize strength and authority while paying homage to Sekhmet, an ancient Egyptian goddess associated with protection. This opulent treasure not only reflects Tutankhamun's status as king but also highlights his deep connection with Ankhesenamun, his wife and queen. As we gaze upon this extraordinary masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back through time to witness firsthand the grandeur and splendor that once graced ancient Egypt's royal court.
