EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a facsimile copy of Nut, the sky goddess, and the solar barques of Ra. Taken from plate 20b of Pantheon Egyptien in Paris, 1822, this color lithograph by Jean Francois Champollion brings forth the ancient wonders of Egyptian mythology. The image depicts Nut, also known as Tpe or Tiphe, gracefully guiding two majestic barques across the celestial expanse. Intricately detailed and richly colored, this artwork transports us to a time when gods and mortals intertwined. Nut's feminine form emanates power and wisdom as she navigates through the heavens with divine purpose. The sun god Ra stands proudly at her side while stars twinkle above them like celestial guardians. The journey depicted in this print symbolizes more than just a physical voyage; it represents the eternal cycle of life and death that governed ancient Egyptian beliefs. As Nut guides Ra's barques through the skies each day and night, she ensures order (Maat) is maintained in both earthly realms and beyond. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this print invites us to delve into the mystical world of ancient Egypt. It serves as a reminder that even thousands of years later, their myths continue to captivate our imaginations and inspire awe for their profound understanding of life's mysteries.
