EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Faience Plaque, dating back to the Late Period of Ancient Egypt (714-333 BCE), bears the name of the deceased as Osiris, the Egyptian god of the afterlife, resurrection, and fertility. The plaque, which is made of a tin-glazed ceramic material known as faience, is a beautiful example of the intricate and colorful art that emerged during this period. Osiris is depicted in this close-up image with his eyes closed, symbolizing his role as the god of the dead and the judge of the underworld. His name is inscribed in hieroglyphics above his head, with the hieroglyph for "Osiris" prominently displayed. The plaque also features the image of the god Mizraim, who was believed to be the father of Osiris, and the wedjat eye, a symbol of protection and regeneration. The blue and green hues of the glaze give the plaque a vibrant and eye-catching appearance. Faience was a popular material for making pottery and sculptures during the Late Period, and this plaque is a testament to the skill and artistry of the ancient Egyptian craftsmen. This Faience Plaque with the name of the deceased as Osiris is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to be a source of inspiration and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Ancient Egypt.
