EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient history - a terracotta model of a boat from the Egyptian civilization. Belonging to the Early Dynastic Period, specifically the Thinite Period, this artifact is an exquisite representation of the nautical vessels used during that time. The studio shot captures every intricate detail of this man-made marvel. Crafted with precision and skill, the terracotta boat model features oars and other elements essential for transportation on water. Its horizontal position allows us to appreciate its design from all angles. As we delve into Egypt's rich past, it becomes evident that this boat model holds immense significance. It belongs to an era known as Dynast XXI or the New Kingdom, which witnessed great advancements in various aspects of life including art and craft. The ceramics used in creating this masterpiece demonstrate not only technical expertise but also artistic finesse. Although devoid of any human presence, this decorative artwork speaks volumes about ancient Egyptian civilization during both its early dynastic period and thinite period.
