EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Tombs of Beni-Hassan in Egypt, captured by the talented artist George Moore during the 19th century. The ancient site of Beni Hasan is renowned for its collection of 39 tombs that date back to the Ancient Egyptian Middle Kingdom, spanning from approximately 2030-1640 BC. This lithograph, part of the esteemed Schuster Gallery collection in London, beautifully captures the essence and grandeur of these historical tombs. As we delve into this image, we are transported back in time to a period when these tombs were still intact and held great significance. The entrance to one such tomb is depicted here, inviting us to explore further into its mysterious interior. Despite being ruins now, this print allows us a glimpse into their former glory. The vibrant colors used by George Moore bring life to this scene and emphasize both the beauty and solemnity associated with death and burial practices in ancient Egypt. It serves as a powerful reminder of our connection with history and how it shapes our understanding of cultures long gone. Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only Moore's skill as an artist but also gain insight into the rich archaeological heritage that Upper Egypt holds within its borders. This print stands as a testament to human curiosity about our past while honoring those who came before us.
