EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable votive shield from the tomb of Tutankhamun, providing us with a glimpse into the rich history and artistry of ancient Egypt. Created during the New Kingdom period, specifically by the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this incised and gilded wood masterpiece stands at an impressive height of 76.2 cm. The focal point of this intricate artwork is the depiction of King Tutankhamun himself slaying a powerful lion, symbolizing his triumph over his enemies. The hieroglyphic inscription accompanying this scene compares the king's strength to that of the god Montu, emphasizing his divine power and authority. Surrounding this central motif are additional symbols representing pharaohs, treasures, scimitars, and even a winged globe. Each element holds its own significance within ancient Egyptian culture and mythology. Preserved in excellent condition within the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo, Egypt, this votive shield serves as a testament to both artistic skill and religious devotion during one of Egypt's most iconic periods. Its presence allows us to connect with an era long past while marveling at its craftsmanship. Through Bridgeman Images' lens capturing every intricate detail on this print without any commercial intent or affiliation with "the company" we can appreciate not only its historical value but also its aesthetic beauty that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
