EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Unguent Bottle, also known as a Krateriskos, dating back to the Late 18th Dynasty of ancient Egypt. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail during the period between c. 1336-1295 BC, this glass artifact stands as a testament to the remarkable craftsmanship of Egyptian artisans. Measuring at 11x8.1 cm, this delicate vessel is housed in the prestigious Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. It was generously gifted by the John Huntington Art and Polytechnic Trust. The bottle's design reflects the elegance and sophistication that characterized ancient Egyptian art. Used for storing unguents or perfumed oils, this jar exemplifies both functionality and beauty. Its graceful curves and intricate patterns make it a true work of art. The translucent glass material adds an ethereal quality to its appearance. As we gaze upon this timeless piece from centuries ago, we are transported back in time to an era where such vessels were not only practical but also held great cultural significance. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only its historical value but also marvel at the ingenuity and skill possessed by those who created it.
