Dating back to the 12th century BC, this exquisite artwork was discovered within the tomb of a prince who was identified as one of Rameses III's sons. The image captures an intriguing blend of royalty and death as it depicts Anubis presiding over the tomb's interior decoration. As a symbol of family and sonship, this wall painting highlights the profound connection between father and child in ancient Egyptian culture. Anubis is portrayed with his distinctive animal head, representing his role as both a funerary deity and guide for souls in their journey to the afterlife.
