EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of an ancient Egyptian artifact known as the Shabti Jar Belonging to Hori. Created between 1295-1069 BC, this jar is made from nile silt clay and adorned with a delicate white slip and black paint. The Egyptian School's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every inch of this 22.2x24 cm masterpiece. Displayed at the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, USA, this remarkable piece was generously gifted by the James G. Hanes Memorial Fund. Its historical significance lies in its role as a funerary container used during ancient Egyptian rituals and ceremonies. The intricate hieroglyphics etched onto the surface of the jar tell stories of Hori's journey into the afterlife, serving as a guide for his soul on its eternal voyage. This shawabti symbolizes protection and assistance for Hori in his new realm. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artifact captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when art served not only aesthetic purposes but also played an integral part in religious beliefs and practices. It reminds us that even though centuries have passed, our fascination with ancient civilizations continues to inspire awe and wonderment today.
