EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Stela to the Apis bull" a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian art. Crafted from painted limestone, this artifact dates back to the Late Period (715-332 BC) and is currently housed in the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The stela depicts a scene of profound honor and worship, as Egyptians pay homage to their revered deity, the Apis bull. The magnificent creature symbolizes strength, fertility, and divine power. Adorned with intricate hieroglyphics that narrate stories of religious significance, this artwork offers a fascinating glimpse into ancient Egyptian beliefs and rituals. In this mesmerizing image captured by Bridgeman Images, we witness devotees gathered around the sacred animal under the radiant sun's warm glow.
