EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Shawabty of Ankh-Hor, a remarkable artifact from Ancient Egypt dating back to 595-586 BC. Crafted with pale turquoise and adorned with vitreous Egyptian blue, this shawabty figurine stands at 9.9x3.4x2.1 cm in size. Hailing from Thebes during the reign of Psamtik II, this shawabty holds great significance as it was commonly included amongst grave goods in Ancient Egypt. Believed to serve as servants for the deceased in the afterlife, these figurines were tasked with carrying out various duties on behalf of their masters. The hieroglyphs etched onto its surface tell stories of power and royalty, symbolizing the crossed arms that denote authority and strength. As a funerary object associated with death and burial rituals, it serves as a testament to the rich cultural practices surrounding ancient Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife. Gifted by the John Huntington Art and Polytechnic Trust to Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, this shawabty offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. Its intricate craftsmanship and historical significance make it an invaluable piece within the realm of ancient art. Through this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to appreciate both its artistic beauty and its role in preserving ancient traditions surrounding kingship, pharaohs, grave goods, and life beyond death itself.
