EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Goddess Sakhmet, a faience statue from the Egyptian 18th Dynasty. Standing at a height of 14 cm, this ancient artifact is housed in the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge in the UK. Goddess Sakhmet, also known as Sekhmet, was revered as both a lion-headed and lioness deity. She symbolized power and strength while embodying destruction against enemies of Re, the sun god. This stunning representation captures her divine essence with intricate details and masterful craftsmanship. The faience material used to create this artwork adds an ethereal quality to its overall appearance. The vibrant colors and smooth texture bring life to every curve and contour of Sakhmet's form.
