EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the innermost coffin of King Tutankhamun, a remarkable artifact from ancient Egypt's New Kingdom period. Crafted by the skilled artisans of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this exquisite piece is made of gold and adorned with semi-precious stones. It can be found today in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. The coffin is not only a stunning work of art but also holds great historical significance. In this image, we see it protected by goddesses Isis and Nephthys, who stand guard over the eternal resting place of the young pharaoh. The intricate details on the coffin include symbols such as crooks, scepters, uraeus (cobra), and other funerary elements that were believed to aid Tutankhamun's journey into the afterlife. The headdress worn by Tutankhamun depicts both Nekhbet and Buto, two important deities associated with protection and royalty. The presence of Osiris symbolism further emphasizes his divine status as a ruler. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era filled with mystery and wonder. This artifact serves as a testament to Egypt's rich cultural heritage and its fascination with death rituals. Its preservation allows us to marvel at its beauty while unraveling secrets about one of history's most enigmatic figures – King Tutankhamun himself.
