EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 13th-century print captures the timeless tale of Pharaoh's Dream, depicting seven fat and seven lean cattle as seen in ancient Egyptian mythology. The intricate details of this medieval artwork, including the gothic border and delicate shading, transport viewers back in time to a world filled with symbolism and mystery.
The image conveys a sense of foreboding as Pharaoh sleeps soundly while visions of prosperity and famine dance through his mind. The juxtaposition of life and death is evident in the depiction of both healthy and emaciated animals, symbolizing the cyclical nature of existence.
As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the power of dreams to shape our destinies and reveal hidden truths. The hanging figures in the background serve as a reminder that even rulers are not immune to fate's whims.
Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this important piece of art history for future generations to appreciate. Through their careful reproduction, we can now study every brushstroke and detail with clarity and precision.
Let us immerse ourselves in this scene from centuries past, where myth meets reality in a mesmerizing display of artistic skill.
