EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Overseer Shabti of Isetemkheb, an ancient Egyptian noblewoman from the Third Intermediate Period. Dating back to Dynasty 21 (1069-945 BCE), this ceramic tomb figure is a testament to the rich heritage and artistry of Africa. The image captures a close-up view of this remarkable artifact, highlighting its intricate details and vibrant colors. The shabti, also known as ushabti figures, were funerary objects placed in tombs to serve their owners in the afterlife. This particular overseer shabti signifies Isetemkheb's high status and occupation as an overseer. Made from faience - a type of glazed ceramic - this piece features a striking combination of black and blue hues that symbolize power and nobility. Its craftsmanship reflects the skilled artistry prevalent during ancient Egypt's Middle Eastern influence. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's African Arts Centre, this photograph invites viewers to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind such artifacts. It serves as a reminder of Egypt's rich cultural heritage and offers insight into how people perceived death and afterlife during that era.
