EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian art, the Silver Sistrum from the Third Intermediate Period. Dating back to Dynasty XXII, approximately between 945-715 BC, this silver artifact is an exquisite representation of the goddess Hathor. The sistrum takes on the form of a janiform head of Hathor, adorned with a wig and broad collar. The finely contoured eyebrows and cosmetic lines on her face add intricate details to this masterpiece. With cow ears and each side of the wig incised with a uraeus, one wearing the crown of Upper Egypt and the other wearing the crown of Lower Egypt, it symbolizes unity between these regions. The arched loop above is strung with three rods embellished with metal discs that produce enchanting sounds when shaken. The plain cylindrical handle features three bands at its top and lower edge for added elegance. This photograph captures every aspect of this stunning silver sistrum in vivid detail. Its historical significance lies within its connection to ancient Egyptian civilization and their worship practices involving music instruments like this one. This artifact serves as a testament to their rich culture and religious beliefs. Displayed against a neutral background without any people present, this image allows viewers to focus solely on appreciating the beauty and craftsmanship preserved in this extraordinary relic from antiquity.
