EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable fig-wood sculpture of the Virgin of the Annunciation, dating back to the 5th century A. D. during the Egyptian civilization's Coptic Period. Standing at a height of 28.5 cm, this full-length seated wooden sculpture exudes an aura of profound spirituality and artistic finesse. In this studio shot, we witness the intricate carving that brings forth every delicate detail of this religious artifact. The figure depicts the momentous event when Archangel Gabriel appeared before Mary to deliver the divine message of her impending motherhood. The rich history and significance behind this vertical sculpture are palpable as it represents Christianity's early roots in ancient Egypt. With its serene expression and graceful posture, it captures both the essence of devotion and human representation within art. Set against a grey background, devoid of any distractions or people, our focus is solely on this archeological treasure from another era - an emblematic relic from ancient Egyptian culture that has withstood the test of time. As we contemplate upon this single object in awe-inspiring admiration, we are reminded once again how art transcends generations and connects us to our past while offering glimpses into spiritual realms beyond our own understanding.
