EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic "Mummy Portrait of a Youth" from Egypt, Africa. Created between 150 and 200 AD, this ancient artifact is a testament to the artistic skill and cultural richness of its time. The portrait, rendered in encaustic on wood, measures approximately 20.3 x 13 cm (8 x 5 1/8 in. ), making it a small yet significant piece. The youth depicted in this portrait exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. Their gaze is both intense and contemplative, as if they hold secrets from another world within their soulful eyes. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke seems to breathe life into the subject's delicate features. What makes this artwork even more fascinating is its connection to mummification practices prevalent during that era. This portrait would have been placed over the face of the deceased individual before burial, serving as a means to ensure their identity was preserved for eternity. As we admire this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to an ancient civilization that valued artistry and spirituality above all else. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring power of visual expression across cultures.
