EDITORS COMMENTS
This close-up image showcases the intricately inscribed knob of an ancient Egyptian artifact, believed to date back to the 18th Dynasty, around 1550-1307 BCE. The knob, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), bears an inscription dedicated to the monarch Nefertiti, also known as Neferkheprure Waenre, Neferneferuaten Nefertiti, or simply Nefertiti. Nefertiti was a powerful queen and possible co-regent during the reign of her husband, Pharaoh Akhenaten. Her name, meaning "The Beautiful One Has Come," is inscribed in hieroglyphics, along with the titles "Beloved of Amun" and "Great King's Wife, His Beloved." The knob's surface is adorned with frit, a type of glazed material, and its colorful design adds to its visual allure. Nefertiti's name and titles were discovered on various artifacts, further solidifying her status as a significant figure in ancient Egyptian history. This studio shot, with its white background, allows for a clear and unobstructed view of the inscription, providing a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of ancient Egypt.
