EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of ancient Egyptian tiles, originating from the step pyramid of Djoser in Saqqara during the Old Kingdom period (2667-2648 BC). Crafted from faience, a type of glazed ceramic material, these tiles are a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic prowess of the Egyptian 3rd Dynasty. The step pyramid itself was built by Imhotep for King Djozer (c. 2630-2611 BC), and these tiles served as decorative elements within its grand structure. Each tile measures approximately 5.5cm in height, highlighting their delicate nature and attention to detail. The vibrant hues featured on these tiles add an enchanting touch to this archaeological treasure. Shades of green and turquoise dominate the color palette, creating a visually stunning display that has stood the test of time. Now housed at the Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge in the UK, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that even thousands of years ago, art played an integral role in society - not only for aesthetic purposes but also as a symbol of power and prestige. Through this print captured by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate both the technical skill involved in creating such intricate designs and gain insight into Egypt's fascinating past.
