EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite unguent box in the form of a double royal cartouche, discovered within the tomb of Tutankhamun. Dating back to the New Kingdom period (c. 1370-52 BC), this remarkable artifact was crafted by skilled artisans from gold-plated wood and adorned with intricate glass paste inlays. Standing at a height of 15.2 cm, this unguent box depicts an image of the young pharaoh seated beneath a radiant sun on a basket. The king is distinguished by his side plait, symbolizing his youth and vitality. This symmetrical composition is further enhanced by the presence of ostrich feathers and a solar disc, adding an aura of regality to this ceremonial vessel. Used for ritual purposes, this unguent box held precious substances such as oils or perfumes that were integral to ancient Egyptian religious practices and burial rituals. Its opulent design reflects both the artistic prowess and spiritual significance attributed to such objects during Egypt's 18th Dynasty. Preserved within the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo, Egypt, this extraordinary piece offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of ancient Egypt. Through its meticulous craftsmanship and symbolic motifs, it serves as a testament to their deep reverence for tradition and belief in divine power.
