EDITORS COMMENTS
In this limestone print titled "Men Trussing an Ox" we are transported back in time to ancient Egypt during the Late Period (715-332 BC). The scene depicts several attendants diligently trussing an ox, preparing it for a ritual slaughter. This act serves as either a food offering to the deceased or as part of a grand funerary feast. The attention to detail in this relief is remarkable, showcasing the skill and artistry of Egyptian craftsmen from centuries ago. It is believed that this piece is a direct copy of an Old Kingdom relief, highlighting the reverence and importance placed on preserving traditional practices and rituals. Measuring 38.40 cm in height and 55.60 cm in width, this artifact now resides at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. It was generously gifted by the Hanna Fund. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the rich agricultural heritage of ancient Egypt. The ox symbolizes not only farming but also pastoral life—a vital aspect of their society's sustenance and prosperity. This photograph captured by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty contained within this ancient Egyptian masterpiece.
