EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian craftsmanship - a Child's chair from the Tomb of Tutankhamun. Created during the New Kingdom period, this wooden chair is adorned with exquisite ivory marquetry, displaying the mastery and attention to detail of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty artisans. Measuring at 71.1x36.8 cm, this miniature throne is now housed in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo, Egypt. It offers us a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur that surrounded Tutankhamun (c. 1341-1323 BC), one of Ancient Egypt's most famous pharaohs. The chair itself features lion paw legs, adding an element of regality to its design. The geometric patterns on its seat further highlight the meticulous artistry employed by its creators. As we admire this artifact through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back thousands of years to witness not only a child-sized furniture but also an embodiment of power and prestige within ancient Egyptian society. It serves as a testament to their advanced artistic techniques and their reverence for beauty even in everyday objects like chairs. This photograph allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and aesthetic allure encapsulated within this extraordinary relic from Tutankhamun's tomb.
