EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic mastery of ancient Egypt. The image features the head of a child king emerging from a delicate lotus flower, discovered in the renowned Tomb of Tutankhamun. Dating back to approximately 1370-1352 BC during the New Kingdom era, this stuccoed and painted wood sculpture is believed to represent King Tutankhamun himself. The remarkable attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. The size of the head, resembling that of a newborn child, adds an element of innocence and vulnerability to the piece. Found at the entrance of his tomb, it serves as a powerful symbol representing rebirth and new beginnings. The young pharaoh's portrait exudes regality with its large head adorned with kohl-lined eyes, characteristic of Egyptian royalty during the Amarna period. This mesmerizing depiction captures not only Tutankhamun's physical likeness but also offers insight into his divine status as ruler. Preserved within the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo, Egypt, this artifact continues to awe viewers worldwide with its historical significance and aesthetic beauty. Its discovery provides us with invaluable insights into ancient Egyptian culture and their beliefs surrounding life after death. Through this photograph print by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of history's most iconic treasures – an enduring testament to human creativity and ingenuity that has captivated generations for centuries.
