EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us on a journey back in time to Ancient Egypt, specifically the tomb of Amon hir Khopshef in the Valley of the Queens. The image showcases an exquisite wall painting that adorns the entrance to the burial chamber, dating back to the 20th dynasty around 1180 BC. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly the Uraeus, a symbol of divine kingship and protection. Positioned prominently above the entrance, it exudes power and authority. Flanking either side are winged serpents, their intricate details mesmerizing as they guard this sacred space. The artist behind this photograph, Mary Jelliffe, has skillfully captured every brushstroke and color nuance with precision. Through her lens, we can appreciate not only the artistic mastery but also gain insight into ancient Egyptian beliefs and customs surrounding death and afterlife. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a distant era where art was intertwined with spirituality. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with our past and our desire to preserve its beauty for future generations. Mary Jelliffe's work allows us to connect with ancient civilizations like never before. Her passion for photography shines through in each frame she captures – preserving history one click at a time.
