EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite ivory box, believed to have been made in Egypt during the 6th century. The intricate carving on the box depicts a powerful scene from the Old Testament: Daniel in the lions den. As we gaze upon this ancient artifact, we are transported back in time to witness Daniel's unwavering faith and courage amidst ferocious beasts. The image is set against a striking black background, allowing every detail of this remarkable piece to come alive. The skillful craftsmanship is evident as each line and curve tells a story of devotion and artistic mastery. This pyxis, or small cylindrical container, serves not only as a functional object but also as a testament to religious beliefs held dear by its creator. As we examine this photograph closely, our eyes are drawn to Daniel himself - a lone figure standing tall among the menacing lions surrounding him. His expression reflects both determination and trust in divine protection. This portrayal reminds us of the power of faith even in times of great adversity. Preserved within the British Museum's collection, this ivory box stands as a tangible link between past and present civilizations. It invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys while marveling at the talent that brought such beauty into existence over centuries ago. Through this image captured by C. M Dixon and Mike Dixon, we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also its enduring impact on art and religion alike.
