EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from Ancient Egypt - a Sarcophagus dating back to the Middle Kingdom, approximately between 2040-1786 BC. The intricate detail captured in this image reveals an intriguing scene of daily life during that era. In the foreground, we witness a cow being milked by a male figure, emphasizing the importance of agriculture and farming in ancient Egyptian society. The calf is tethered to its mother's leg, symbolizing their close bond and reliance on each other. Interestingly, another calf can be seen behind them, indicating that multiple cows were present at this location. The sculpture itself is a bas relief carving made from stone, showcasing the exceptional artistic skills of ancient Egyptians. This sarcophagus was created as part of burial goods for someone who has passed away, highlighting their belief in the afterlife and the significance they placed on proper burial rituals. Through this photograph print, we are transported back in time to experience not only the artistry but also gain insights into how people lived and interacted with animals thousands of years ago. It serves as a testament to Egypt's rich cultural heritage and provides us with valuable glimpses into their customs and traditions surrounding death and dairying practices.
