EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian goldsmith art. The pendant, belonging to King Osorkon II of Dynasty XXII during the Third Intermediate Period, is a stunning blend of gold and lapis lazuli. Depicting the divine family of gods - Osiris, Horus, and Isis - it offers a glimpse into the rich mythology and religious beliefs that shaped Egyptian civilization. The intricate details on this vertical pendant are truly mesmerizing. The god Osiris, symbolizing resurrection and eternal life, stands tall with his son Horus by his side. Their regal presence is complemented by the graceful figure of Isis, their wife and mother respectively. Each element has been meticulously crafted to perfection. The use of lapis lazuli adds an ethereal touch to this piece as its deep blue hue represents royalty in ancient Egypt. Combined with shimmering gold accents, it creates a striking contrast that enhances the overall beauty of this artifact. As we admire this studio shot photograph from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported back in time to an era where artistry thrived alongside spirituality. This image serves as a testament to the skillful techniques employed by ancient Egyptian goldsmiths who transformed precious materials into timeless treasures like this pendant
