EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable wall painting from the tomb of the scribe Menna, dating back to the 18th dynasty in Thebes, ancient Egypt. The scene depicted is none other than the Vendage, capturing two distinct activities related to grape cultivation and winemaking. On the right side of the painting, we witness individuals diligently picking ripe grapes in a lush vineyard. Their careful selection ensures only the finest fruits are chosen for further processing. Meanwhile, on the left side of this vibrant artwork, we observe workers treading on these harvested grapes with their bare feet. This traditional method was employed to extract precious juice that would eventually be transformed into exquisite wine. It is fascinating to witness how our ancestors utilized such techniques centuries ago. Atop this enchanting composition lies an array of amphora-shaped ceramic wine vessels. These elegant containers were commonly used during that era for storing and transporting wine across vast distances. The attention to detail in this painting is truly awe-inspiring; every stroke captures not just scenes of agriculture but also glimpses into an entire way of life during ancient times. As we admire this piece today, it serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our enduring fascination with viticulture throughout history.
