EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving from Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" showcases a collection of Egyptian gods, each depicted with intricate detail and vibrant colors. The image features Isis, the goddess of magic and motherhood, in three different forms - as a powerful deity on her own, alongside her son Horus, and with a disk on her head symbolizing her role as the queen of heaven.
Osiris, the god of the afterlife and resurrection, is also prominently featured in two variations. Serapis, a syncretic deity combining elements of Greek and Egyptian mythology, adds an interesting cultural blend to the mix.
The image is completed by representations of Harpokrates (Harpocrates), the god of silence and secrets. Each figure exudes an aura of mystique and power that captivates viewers and transports them back to ancient Egypt.
Friedrich Johann Bertuch's meticulous attention to detail shines through in this engraving, showcasing his dedication to educating children about various subjects including mythology. This piece serves as both a work of art and a historical reference point for those interested in exploring the rich tapestry of Egyptian culture.
