EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Amulet of a Djed Pillar from ancient Egypt, dating back to the Third Intermediate Period and belonging to Dynasty 21-25 (1070-525 BCE). The amulet, crafted with great skill and attention to detail, represents a symbol of stability and strength in Egyptian culture. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate carving on this ceramic charm. Made from faience, a type of glazed pottery, it features vibrant colors that have stood the test of time. The hieroglyphics adorning its surface add an air of mystery and intrigue. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's art gallery, this artifact is part of their extensive collection showcasing arts from Africa. Its presence serves as a reminder of Egypt's rich heritage and cultural significance within the African continent. Despite being created centuries ago by unknown hands, this amulet continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty. It evokes curiosity about life during ancient times in Mizraim (Egypt) and offers insights into their beliefs surrounding luck and protection. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to an era when symbols held immense power and meaning. This photograph print preserves not only the physical object but also our connection to history itself.
