EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian jewelry - Girdle Fish-Shaped Beads from the New Kingdom Dynasty 18. Dating back to approximately 1479-1425 B. C. , these exquisite beads were discovered in Upper Egypt, specifically in Thebes at Wadi Gabbanat el-Qurud. Believed to have adorned one of the tombs belonging to Thutmose III's three foreign wives, this girdle is an extraordinary testament to the craftsmanship and artistic prowess of ancient Egyptians. Made entirely out of gold, it measures an impressive 83.8 cm (33 inches) when strung together. The highlight of this stunning girdle lies in its intricate fish-shaped beads that add a touch of whimsy and elegance. Each individual fish measures about 2.4 cm (15/16 inches), showcasing meticulous attention to detail by its creator. Preserved through time, this archaeological treasure now finds itself part of the Liszt Collection, serving as a window into Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. Its presence reminds us not only of the skillful artistry but also serves as evidence for the importance placed on adornment and beauty during ancient times.
