EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in ancient Egyptian mythology - the Judgement of the Dead. Taken from the Temple of Deir-el-Bahari, Egypt, dating back to approximately 1025 BC, this papyrus artwork showcases the intricate beliefs and rituals surrounding death and the afterlife. In this scene, we see Anubis, the jackal-headed god of embalming and mummification, weighing the heart of a deceased individual on one side of a scale. The presence of Thoth, represented as a monkey squatting on the scales-beam, signifies his role as an arbiter or scribe who records the outcome. Osiris, lord of the underworld and judge of souls, watches attentively from his majestic throne. The image is taken from "The Art of Ancient Egypt" published by Phaidon Press in Vienna in 1936. It beautifully illustrates how art was used to convey religious concepts during ancient times. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element symbolizes something meaningful within Egyptian culture. This photograph not only transports us back thousands of years but also invites contemplation about life's ultimate judgement. It serves as a reminder that justice exists beyond our mortal realm and that our actions carry consequences even after death. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece today, it offers us an intriguing glimpse into ancient Egypt's rich history while evoking questions about our own beliefs regarding life's purpose and what awaits us beyond its threshold.
