EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient Egypt, known as the "Painted Mummy Covering (Apron)" dating back to 305-30 BC. Crafted with linen, gesso, paint, and gilding, this exquisite piece measures 50.8x30.5 cm and is currently housed in the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh. The apron's intricate design immediately catches the eye; its wings and hieroglyphs symbolize an array of meanings deeply rooted in Egyptian culture. This adornment was an integral part of ceremonial rituals associated with death and the afterlife.
