EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the intricate beauty of ancient Egyptian mythology. Created in 1823 by Jean Francois Champollion, this colour lithograph brings to life the divine figure of Khepri, also known as the Scarab Divinity. In this artwork, we see Khepri depicted as a seated scarab beetle with hieroglyphs adorning its body. The artist skillfully captures the symbolism of the sun and creation associated with this deity. With its majestic presence and serene expression, Khepri represents the eternal cycle of rebirth and renewal. The attention to detail in this lithograph is remarkable; every line and curve meticulously crafted to convey both power and grace. The inclusion of the was sceptre further emphasizes Khepri's role as a creator god in Egyptian mythology. This rare piece from Champollion's "Pantheon Egyptien" collection offers us a glimpse into an ancient civilization's beliefs and reverence for their deities. It serves as a testament to human fascination with divinity throughout history. Displayed against a dark background, "The god, Khepri" demands our attention and invites contemplation on themes such as life's cyclical nature and mankind's quest for meaning. This stunning print is not only visually striking but also carries profound cultural significance that continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide.
