EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite limestone head, believed to be from a statuette of a princess, dates back to the Amarna Period of Ancient Egypt, around 1365-1347 BC. Discovered in Egypt, likely from the city of el-Amarna, this masterpiece is now proudly displayed at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark. The princess's head is characterized by her youthful, serene features, with a delicate chin, slender nose, and almond-shaped eyes, which are framed by thick, curled eyelashes. Her hairstyle, featuring a tall, conical wig, is a hallmark of the Amarna Period, reflecting the fashion of the New Empire and the monarchy's desire to break away from traditional Egyptian styles. The intricately carved details of her head reveal the skill and artistry of the ancient Egyptian sculptors, who captured the essence of the princess's beauty and elegance. The smooth, polished surface of the stone adds to the lifelike quality of the piece, making it a captivating work of art that has survived the test of time. The Amarna Period was a significant era in Egyptian history, marked by the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten and his wife Nefertiti, who promoted a new religious and artistic movement. This head of the princess is a testament to the artistic achievements of this period and the enduring legacy of Ancient Egyptian culture.
