EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite inlay of Akhenaten, a prominent figure from the New Kingdom era in ancient Egypt. Created during the Armana period between 1353 and 1336 B. C. , this delicate piece is made of glass and stands at a height of 4.2 cm. The intricate details of this artwork are truly remarkable. The recessed eye and eyebrow, along with the enlarged pierced earlobe, demonstrate the meticulous craftsmanship that went into its creation. Additionally, traces of two vanity wrinkles can be observed on the neck, adding to its authenticity and historical significance. The vibrant blue color, reminiscent of turquoise, adds a touch of regality to this artifact. As one gazes upon it, they are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and power associated with Egyptian royalty. This fragment serves as a testament to Akhenaten's reign as pharaoh during his rule over ancient Egypt. It symbolizes his influence as a ruler and provides valuable insights into the artistry prevalent during that era. Preserved within a private collection today, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the cultural heritage embodied by such artifacts from North Africa. Its presence speaks volumes about African history and archaeology while showcasing how art can transcend time itself.
