A figure clad in traditional Egyptian attire stands on the banks of the River Nile, surrounded by an array of majestic ibises - sacred birds revered for their connection to Thoth, the god of wisdom and writing. As our eyes wander across the composition, we are drawn to the intricate details that bring this historical moment to life.
