EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient Egyptian artwork depicting Nefertari, wife of Ramesses II, being presented before the god Re-Horakhty by Horus. The mural, dating back to the 19th Dynasty (c. 1292-1187 BC), can be found in the Tomb of Nefertari in the Valley of the Queens, Thebes, Egypt. In this scene, we witness a momentous occasion as Nefertari is brought before Re-Horakhty, who is represented with a falcon head and a solar disc on his crown. Horus stands beside her as they present her to this powerful deity associated with both Ra and Horus himself. The intricate hieroglyphics adorning the walls add depth and meaning to this painting. They symbolize concepts such as eternal life (ankh) and emphasize Nefertari's divine status as queen during her journey into the afterlife. Through this remarkable piece of artistry captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to an era where gods were worshipped fervently and queens held immense power. It serves as a testament to both Egypt's rich cultural heritage and its belief in an afterlife filled with splendor for those deemed worthy. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill involved but also offers insight into ancient Egyptian religious beliefs surrounding death and divinity.
