EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white reproduction of a print showcases an ancient Egyptian garden plan, believed to be from the garden of the High Official of Amenhotep (Amenophis) III, as depicted in the funerary chapel of Sennefer (Sennefur) near Luxor. The original painting of the garden was copied by Ippolito Rosellini in the 19th century. The garden, also known as Sennefer's Garden, dates back to the 15th century BC and provides a fascinating glimpse into the concept of gardening and landscape design in ancient Egypt. The garden plan features various elements of Egyptian nature, including vines, vineyards, and trees. The vine, a symbol of life and rebirth, is prominently displayed in the garden, reflecting the importance of agriculture and the fertility of the land in ancient Egyptian culture. The garden also includes a mausoleum or tomb of the vines, which may have been used for the burial of the deceased's remains. This reproduction, created by Frances Benjamin Johnston in the 1910s or 1920s, is a valuable addition to the heritage of art and garden design. It provides a unique perspective on the ancient Egyptian way of life and their connection to nature, which continues to influence modern gardening practices and design. The print is a testament to the enduring appeal of ancient Egyptian culture and its impact on the world, particularly in the United States during the early 20th century.
