EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Wedjat Eye amulet, crafted during the Egyptian Third Intermediate Period. Measuring 6.5 cm in length, this exquisite piece is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The Wedjat eye amulets were highly sought after for their representation of the healed eye of Horus, embodying healing power, regeneration, and overall protection. The amulet features intricate details including a wing, two cobras, and a lion that allude to the sun god Re. Its decorative relief carvings depict elements from Egyptian mythology and superstition. This talismanic charm holds great significance as it symbolizes sight and serves as an all-seeing guardian. With its vibrant blue glaze and ornate design, this ceramic sculpture stands as a testament to ancient Egypt's rich artistic heritage. It carries deep symbolism associated with funerary practices and was believed to provide guidance in the afterlife. The Wedjat Eye amulet represents not only an iconic artifact but also a connection to ancient beliefs surrounding protection against evil forces and good fortune. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to witness the craftsmanship and spiritual reverence bestowed upon such objects by the Egyptians thousands of years ago.
