This print showcases the exquisite "Mummy Portrait of a Woman" dating back to the Egyptian Roman Period, specifically between 100-10 AD. The portrait is created using encaustic on wood and adorned with gilt and linen, adding an air of opulence to its overall appearance. Measuring 48x36x12.8 cm, this artwork can be found at the prestigious J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA. Attributed to the Isidora Master, this female figure depicted in the portrait exudes elegance and grace. She wears a wreath atop her head, symbolizing her status or achievements during that era. Adorned with a stunning necklace and pearl earrings, she embodies timeless beauty. Her braided hair intricately styled with a hairpin adds further sophistication to her look. The application of gold leaf enhances her features and gives off an ethereal glow.

Its preservation throughout centuries allows us to marvel at the craftsmanship of our ancestors while providing insight into their culture.
