EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing fusion of Scythian and Egyptian deities, as depicted in the 19th century by Italian artist Lorenzo Rocceggiani and masterfully rendered in copperplate engraving by Pietro Ruga. The central figure is the bearded Scythian god, an enigmatic deity from ancient Sarmatia, a region in Eastern Europe. He is depicted with a flowing beard, wearing a horned headdress and holding a spear and shield. This god is believed to represent fertility, abundance, and protection. Surrounding the Scythian deity are two Egyptian gods. To his left, the Earth goddess is shown with a disc and a lion at her feet. This goddess, often identified as Nut or Isis, represents the fertile and nurturing earth. The disc she holds symbolizes the sky and the sun, while the lion signifies strength and power. To the right of the Scythian god is Anubis, the Egyptian god of mummification and the afterlife. Anubis is depicted as a jackal-headed god, holding the symbolic Ankh, the key to eternal life. The combination of these gods from distinct ancient civilizations highlights the rich cultural exchange and syncretism that occurred throughout history. This stunning print, taken from Lorenzo Rocceggiani's 100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans, published in Rome in 1802, offers a fascinating glimpse into the mythologies and artistic traditions of classical civilizations.
