Counting the Geese: A Scene from the Tomb of Nebamun, 18th Dynasty, Egypt, ca. 1350 BC (The British Museum, London) This exquisite wall painting, discovered in the tomb of the ancient Egyptian nobleman Nebamun in Thebes, Luxor, depicts a tranquil scene of a man in a colorful robe, seated on a mat, meticulously counting geese. The serene setting of this New Kingdom masterpiece, dating back to around 1350 BC, reflects the daily life and administrative duties of the Egyptian elite. The man's attentive gaze is focused on the geese, which are neatly arranged in rows, their heads turned towards him. The vibrant colors of the painting bring the scene to life, with the man's red robe contrasting beautifully against the cool tones of the wall and the lush greenery in the background. Counting geese was an essential task for ancient Egyptians, as they were a valuable source of food and income. The birds were often raised for their meat, feathers, and eggs. Accurately keeping track of the number of geese was crucial for managing their resources effectively, ensuring the prosperity of the estate. The painting from the tomb of Nebamun is a testament to the artistic prowess of the ancient Egyptians. It showcases their attention to detail, their mastery of color, and their ability to capture the essence of daily life in their art. This scene invites us to take a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the lives of the ancient Egyptians and their administrative practices.
