EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a wall painting from the tomb of the scribe Menna in Thebes, Ancient Egypt. Created during the 18th dynasty (c1419-1380 BC), this scene depicts the Vendage, or grape harvest, in a vibrant and detailed manner. On the right side of the painting, figures are diligently picking grapes in a lush vineyard while on the left side, others are seen treading grapes to extract their precious juice. At the top center of this artwork, amphora-shaped ceramic wine vessels stand prominently. These vessels were used for storing and transporting wine during that time period. Menna himself was an esteemed scribe who served under pharaohs Tuthmosis IV and Amenhotep III. His tomb is adorned with various paintings depicting farming scenes, indicating his involvement in agricultural administration. The image beautifully captures elements related to agriculture, viticulture, and wine-making practices prevalent in ancient Egyptian society. It offers us a glimpse into daily life during that era as well as insights into Menna's profession and responsibilities. With its rich colors and intricate details, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical artifact. It transports viewers back to ancient Egypt while also reminding us of our shared human connection through concepts such as occupation, country life, and even death rituals associated with burial sites like mausoleums.
