EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing artwork of the Ptolemaic period in ancient Egypt. Titled "The life-giving power of the sun" it depicts a papyrus from the Book of the Dead, housed in the Egyptian Museum in Turin, Italy. The image transports us back to a time when mythology and art intertwined seamlessly. The intricate details on this papyrus highlight its significance as a symbol of solar symbology. It serves as a testament to how deeply Egyptians revered and worshipped the sun, considering it as an essential source of life. Every stroke on this delicate piece of paper tells a story about death and rebirth, capturing our imagination with its rich symbolism. The Ptolemaic period (332-30 BC) was known for its remarkable artistic achievements, and this artwork is no exception. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful photography allows us to appreciate every nuance and detail present on this ancient artifact. Through her lens, we can almost feel ourselves being transported into another world - one where gods ruled over mortals and rituals were performed to ensure eternal life. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of Egypt's glorious past but also of humanity's enduring fascination with art that transcends time itself.
