EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the little shrine of Tutankhamun, transporting us back to ancient Egypt during the New Kingdom era around 1340 BC. The image depicts a significant moment as the Queen delicately fastens a necklace around the neck of her beloved King. Crafted with intricate details and adorned in gold-plated splendor, this piece is truly a testament to the exquisite artistry of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty. The scene takes place within the confines of their sacred shrine, which once contained statuettes of this royal couple. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of their powerful bond and shared destiny as pharaohs ruling over an empire steeped in rich history. The Queen's regal presence is accentuated by her uraeus headdress and vulture symbol, signifying her status as both wife and queen. The King's cartouche proudly displays his name while his collar gleams with golden brilliance. Through this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported into an ancient world where love and power intertwine seamlessly. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur that defined ancient Egyptian civilization.
