EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Lentoid Flask, also known as a Pilgrim Flask, dating back to the Late 18th to 19th Dynasty of ancient Egypt. Crafted between c. 1336-1186 BC, this glass artifact stands at an impressive size of 12x19.2 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. The vibrant yellow hue of the flask immediately catches the eye, contrasting beautifully against its green fractured surface. Although it bears signs of repair over time, these imperfections only add to its allure and historical significance. As we gaze upon this ancient vessel, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when it was used for storing precious liquids or oils by pilgrims during their spiritual journeys. Its unique lentoid shape further enhances its visual appeal and evokes curiosity about its purpose and symbolism within Egyptian culture. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' impeccable photography skills, every intricate detail is captured flawlessly – from the delicate curves and patterns adorning the flask's body to the expert craftsmanship that went into creating such a masterpiece. With this print in hand or on display, art enthusiasts can now bring home a piece of ancient Egypt's rich history and marvel at the ingenuity and beauty that transcends time itself.
