EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a reliefe fragment of the iconic couple, Akhenaten and Nefertiti, dating back to 1340 BC. Created during the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this piece is currently housed in the Aegyptisches Museum in Berlin. The image transports us back to ancient Egypt, offering a glimpse into the lives of these legendary figures. Akhenaten, also known as Amenhotep IV or Echnaton, was a pharaoh who reigned from 1371 to 1337 BC. His reign was marked by his radical religious reforms and his devotion to the worship of Aten, the sun god. Nefertiti, renowned for her beauty and grace, stands beside him in this fragmentary sculpture. As one of history's most famous queens and an influential figure during her time, she continues to captivate our imagination with her timeless elegance. The intricate details carved into this relief speak volumes about the skill and craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian artists. The delicate lines that form their features convey a sense of intimacy between Akhenaten and Nefertiti. As we admire this artwork from afar today, it serves as a reminder not only of their historical significance but also of the enduring legacy left behind by ancient civilizations like Egypt. It allows us to connect with our past and appreciate the artistry that has stood the test of time.
