EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of a Painted wooden stela of Neswy from ancient Egypt, dating back to the 3rd century BC. The artwork depicts Neswy with his Ba at the top, surrounded by a series of scenes arranged in horizontal bands.
At the top, we see a winged solar disk flanked by goddesses Nekhbet and Wadket as snakes, along with Anubis as a jackal. Moving down, we witness the deceased worshiping the Sun God and other deities in a solar boat. Finally, at the bottom, Neswy is shown before Osiris, Isis, Nephthys, Horus, Hathor, Anubis and Wenawet.
The level of detail in this piece is truly remarkable - from hieroglyphs adorning each band to the gilded accents that bring each deity to life. This artifact provides us with a glimpse into ancient Egyptian beliefs surrounding death and the afterlife.
Currently housed in the British Museum in London, this Painted wooden stela serves as an important reminder of Egypt's rich cultural heritage during the Early Ptolemaic Period. It stands as a testament to both artistic skill and spiritual devotion that has captivated viewers for centuries.
