EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a relief depicting scribes diligently at work in the Tomb of Horemheb, dating back to the New Kingdom period (c. 1323-1295 BC) in ancient Egypt. The intricate wall painting captures a fascinating detail of this scene, providing us with a glimpse into the world of education and learning during that time. In this image, we witness an engaging lesson taking place, possibly involving children who are undergoing scribal training. Seated at their desks with quills in hand and palettes nearby, these young learners immerse themselves in the art of writing under the watchful eye of their teacher. The classroom setting is believed to be located in Memphis or Saqqara, both significant cultural centers during ancient times. The importance placed on education is evident as these aspiring scribes dedicate themselves to honing their skills. Their commitment to mastering the craft is palpable through their focused expressions and meticulous attention to detail. This remarkable photograph by Mary Jelliffe not only provides us with a visual record of historical significance but also serves as a reminder that knowledge has always been valued throughout human history. It invites us to reflect on how education has evolved over centuries while acknowledging its timeless essence - an essential tool for personal growth and societal progress.
