EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable collection of Ancient Egyptian furniture, captured in 1822 by the talented artist Pomel. The image features various painted seats and armchairs discovered in the 5th Tomb of the Kings at Byban el Molouk, located in Thebes. Plate 89 from Volume II of Descriptions of Egypt beautifully presents these ancient artifacts that provide us with valuable insights into the rich history and culture of this extraordinary civilization. The aquatint technique used to create this print adds depth and texture to each piece, allowing us to appreciate their intricate designs and vibrant colors. These exquisite chairs and couches were once part of burial rituals, symbolizing both comfort for the deceased on their journey into the afterlife and status within society. Situated near Karnak in Luxor, this mausoleum holds immense historical significance as it offers a glimpse into life during ancient times. Andre Dutertre's meticulous attention to detail brings forth an authentic representation that archaeologists and historians continue to study today. As we delve into this mesmerizing image, we are transported back centuries ago when these pieces adorned grand halls and royal chambers. This photograph is not only a testament to human creativity but also serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with Egypt's majestic past.
