EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian art, the "Pectoral decorated with the winged scarab protected by Isis and Nephthys". Created during the New Kingdom period (c. 1567-1320 BC) by the skilled artisans of the 18th Dynasty, this exquisite artifact measures 24 cm in length and is now housed in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. The pectoral features a stunning combination of gold cloisonné and glass paste, meticulously crafted to depict intricate details. At its center lies a majestic winged scarab beetle, symbolizing rebirth and protection. Flanking it are two goddesses: Isis on one side, representing magic and healing; and Nephthys on the other, embodying mourning and protection. Every element within this masterpiece holds profound significance. The wings represent divine power while an uraeus adorns each side as a symbol of royalty. A cartouche encloses a solar disc at the top, signifying Tutankhamun's name written in hieroglyphics. The symmetrical design exudes harmony and balance—a hallmark of Egyptian artistry—while amber accents add warmth to its golden radiance. This treasure was discovered within Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings—an extraordinary find that has captivated historians for centuries. Through this photograph from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we can marvel at both the craftsmanship involved in creating such an intricate piece as well
