This print showcases the Mythological papyrus of Imenemsauf, chief bearer of Amon, with a stunning focus on the detail of king Ra-Horakhty. The ancient Egyptian civilization comes to life through this vertical composition, revealing an intricate tableau filled with symbolic elements. In this mesmerizing scene, we see king Ra-Horakhty seated majestically while holding a falcon and an ancient vase on a regal table.

The illustration and painting techniques employed in this artwork are truly remarkable. Every stroke brings forth hieroglyphs that tell stories from the 21st dynasty during the Third Intermediate Period. This archeological artifact transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the rich tapestry of ancient Egyptian culture.
