EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian art, known as the "Scarab: Striding Lion Motif". Dating back to the New Kingdom era, specifically Dynasties 18 (around 1550-1295 BCE), this exquisite carving is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Egypt. The scarab beetle, meticulously carved from carnelian stone, takes center stage in this artwork. Its vibrant orange color adds an enchanting touch to the overall composition. The scarab holds great significance in Egyptian mythology, symbolizing rebirth and regeneration. What makes this particular scarab even more intriguing is the addition of a striding lion motif. This fusion of two powerful symbols - the sacred beetle and majestic lion - represents strength and protection in ancient Egyptian belief. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's African Art Centre, this artifact offers visitors a glimpse into Africa's artistic legacy. It serves as a reminder of Egypt's prominent position within Middle Eastern history and its contributions to art throughout centuries. Although crafted by an unknown artist long ago, this scarab continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details and timeless beauty. As we admire it today, we are reminded that art has no boundaries when it comes to transcending time and connecting us with our shared human history.
