EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored 19th-century woodcut reproduction transports us back to the ancient land of Egypt, where the powerful deities Shu, Sibu, and Nuit perform a sacred ceremony. In this mesmerizing illustration, we witness the divine beings separating night and day with their celestial powers. As the sun sets on one side of the painting, Shu stands tall in his role as the god of air and sunlight. With outstretched arms, he gracefully lifts Nuit into the heavens above. Nuit herself represents the sky goddess, her body adorned with stars that twinkle against a deep blue backdrop. On the other side of this enchanting scene is Sibu – an embodiment of darkness and mystery. This deity personifies nightfall as he watches over his dominion while holding an eye symbolizing protection and wisdom. The intricate hieroglyphics surrounding these figures tell tales of ancient beliefs and rituals passed down through generations. They remind us that religion played a central role in Egyptian society during classical times. Through this vintage artwork, we are transported to a time when astronomy was intertwined with spirituality; when gods were believed to control natural phenomena such as sunrise and sunset. It serves as a testament to Egypt's rich history and its fascination with both earthly wonders and supernatural forces. This stunning print captures not only our imagination but also offers glimpses into North Africa's ancient past - reminding us that even centuries later, Egypt's classical civilization continues to captivate our hearts through art like this remarkable wood
