EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable wall painting from the Tomb of Sennedjem in The Workers Village, Egypt. Dating back to the New Kingdom period (c. 1292-1187 BC), this piece of ancient Egyptian art depicts a Solar barque with Re-Horakhty, the benu bird, and four other deities. The focal point of the painting is the magnificent Solar barque, symbolizing the journey to the afterlife. It is adorned with intricate hieroglyphics and exquisite details that reflect the Egyptians' deep-rooted funerary beliefs. Standing proudly on board is Re-Horakhty, an important solar deity associated with rebirth and renewal. Hovering above them all is the benu bird, often associated with creation and resurrection in Egyptian mythology. Its elegant form adds a sense of grace and mystique to this enchanting scene. The presence of four additional deities further enhances its significance. Each one holds symbolic attributes such as was sceptres or falcon-headed appearances representing different aspects of divinity. Painted within a tomb's walls, this artwork serves as a visual representation of religious devotion and reverence for life beyond death. The meticulous brushstrokes bring these ancient figures to life while preserving their cultural heritage for generations to come. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured every detail in this print without compromising its historical integrity. This image invites us into an extraordinary world where gods reign supreme and mortals seek eternal salvation through elaborate
