EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable painted bas-relief depicting the revered goddess Hathor. Originating from the Valley of the Kings, specifically found within the Tomb of Seti I and acquired by Champollion in 1829, this exquisite piece belongs to Egypt's New Kingdom, Dynasty XIX. The intricate craftsmanship is evident as Hathor's profile emerges gracefully from the stone surface. The ancient Egyptian civilization comes to life through this art form, revealing their deep religious beliefs and rich history. The vertical composition emphasizes every delicate detail carved into this bas-relief. Hathor, an important deity associated with joy, love, music, and motherhood, is depicted here in her divine splendor. Her serene expression captivates viewers as they witness her timeless beauty frozen in time. The absence of people adds an air of mystery to this archeological artifact; it allows us to focus solely on Hathor herself and appreciate the skillful execution that has preserved her image for centuries. This snapshot transports us back to ancient Egypt's glorious past when gods and goddesses were worshipped fervently. It serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion while providing valuable insights into ancient Egyptian culture. With its detailed depiction of both animal representation (the snake) and female likeness (Hathor), alongside intricate hairstyles characteristic of that era, this artwork truly encapsulates the essence of ancient Egyptian artistry.
