EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and powerful "Udjat Eyes on a Coffin" from the Middle Kingdom of ancient Egypt. Crafted with wood and adorned with vibrant paint, this masterpiece belongs to a private collection, offering us a glimpse into the rich history of Egyptian art. The Udjat Eyes hold immense significance in Egyptian mythology and symbolism. The right eye represents the sun, while the left eye symbolizes the moon, both serving as protective symbols associated with Horus, the god of kingship and sky. These eyes were believed to possess healing powers and ward off evil spirits, making them an essential element in funerary rituals. Through its apotropaic nature, this pair of Wedjat or Udjat eyes painted on coffins aimed to restore life for those who had passed away. The meticulous brushstrokes bring these mystical symbols to life, evoking a sense of awe and reverence for ancient beliefs. Preserved through time and now captured in this exquisite photograph by Bridgeman Images, this artwork invites us to contemplate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its spiritual essence. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with human existence – transcending boundaries of time and culture – allowing us to connect with our ancestors' beliefs and aspirations.
