EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the ancient wonders of Egypt. Taken by photographer Mary Jelliffe, it showcases a mesmerizing painting found in the Tomb of Horemheb, located in Thebes during the 18th dynasty. The focal point of this artwork is the god Nefertum, also known as Nefertem, adorned with a magnificent water lily or lotus headdress. As we gaze upon this image, we are drawn into the intricate details and vibrant colors that bring this ancient deity to life. Nefertum holds great significance in Egyptian mythology as the god of perfumes and healing. His presence here is further enhanced by the inclusion of the Knot of Isis, symbolizing protection and eternal life. Through this photograph, we are granted a glimpse into an era long gone but forever preserved through art. The rich cultural heritage of Ancient Egypt shines through every brushstroke captured by Mary Jelliffe's lens. As we contemplate this piece, our imagination takes flight to envision what life was like during Horemheb's reign from 1321 to 1292 BC. We can almost hear whispers echoing within these sacred walls and feel a connection with those who once worshipped these deities. Mary Jelliffe has masterfully documented not just an artifact but also a testament to human creativity and spirituality spanning thousands of years. This print serves as a reminder that art has always been humanity's way of immortalizing its beliefs and aspirations for generations yet unborn.
