EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of ancient Egyptian spoons used for make-up during the New Kingdom era. Created from wood, these delicate utensils were meticulously crafted by skilled artisans of the 18th Dynasty (c. 1567-1320 BC). Now housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this timeless piece showcases the remarkable artistry and attention to detail that defined ancient Egyptian culture. The image reveals a selection of spoons elegantly displayed within a container, offering a glimpse into the daily rituals and cosmetic practices of ancient Egyptians. The half-nude female figure depicted on papyrus adds an intriguing element to the composition, symbolizing femininity and sensuality. The photographer skillfully captures not only the intricate design of each spoon but also their connection to nature. The presence of marsh plants like lotus hints at Egypt's lush landscapes while a duck gracefully glides across its surface, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal. This stunning photograph is part of Bridgeman Images' collection and provides viewers with an opportunity to appreciate both historical artifacts and artistic photography. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows us to explore our fascination with ancient civilizations while reminding us that beauty transcends time.
