EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of an 18th dynasty funerary statuette, believed to be either Ptah or a king, dating back to around 1370 BC. The statuette is a representation of the deceased individual in the afterlife, known as a Shabti in ancient Egyptian culture.
The craftsmanship and artistry of this piece are truly remarkable, showcasing the skill and dedication of the artisans who created it thousands of years ago. The figure exudes a sense of power and majesty, with its regal posture and finely detailed features.
In ancient Egypt, these funerary statuettes were placed in tombs to serve as servants for the deceased in the afterlife. They were meant to perform any labor required by their master so that they could enjoy eternal rest and peace.
Displayed at the Louvre Museum, this 18th dynasty funerary statuette is not only a beautiful work of art but also a fascinating glimpse into the beliefs and customs of ancient Egyptian society. It serves as a reminder of our connection to those who came before us and offers insight into their spiritual practices and reverence for life beyond death.
