EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from Ancient Egypt, specifically the Tomb of Petosiris in Tunael Gebel. Dating back to 300 BC, this wall carving showcases the intricate process of collecting and bottling wine. The image transports us to a bygone era, allowing us to witness firsthand the ancient art of wine making. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see skilled individuals meticulously tending to the grapes during harvest season. Their hands delicately pluck ripe fruits from the vines while others carefully transport them into large baskets. The attention to detail is remarkable as every step seems purposeful and intentional. The atmosphere depicted in this photograph exudes an air of reverence for both nature's bounty and human craftsmanship. It serves as a testament to the importance that wine held in Ancient Egyptian society - not only as a beverage but also as an integral part of their rituals and celebrations. Mary Jelliffe's keen eye has captured this historical moment with finesse, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. Through her lens, we are transported back thousands of years ago, gaining insight into the daily lives and cultural practices of our ancestors. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring artwork, let us reflect on how far humanity has come since those ancient times while simultaneously acknowledging our debt to those who came before us – their knowledge and traditions shaping our present-day understanding of viticulture and winemaking techniques.
