EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of ancient Egyptian jewelry - the Pectoral with a bird-scarab, from the tomb of Tutankhamun. Created during the New Kingdom period (c. 1370-52 BC) by the skilled artisans of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this gold cloisonné pectoral is adorned with semi-precious stones and glass paste. Measuring an impressive 51 cm in length, this exquisite artifact holds great symbolic significance. The central focus is on a scarab beetle pushing a boat containing a sacred wedjet eye, representing the sun about to be reborn. Flanked by buds, its claws firmly grasp a lily and lotus flower - symbols of purity and regeneration. The intricate details reveal Tutankhamun's journey towards divinity after his death. The darkened moon within the wedjet eye represents his transformation into a god while being guided and protected by Thoth, depicted as an ibis-headed deity associated with wisdom and writing, and Horus, represented as a falcon-headed god symbolizing kingship. Currently housed in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo, Egypt; this remarkable piece offers us insight into ancient Egyptian beliefs surrounding life after death and their mastery in creating breathtaking works of art that have stood the test of time.
