EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Egyptian Goddess Bastet in her feline form, surrounded by adorable kittens. Crafted from bronze during the Late Period of ancient Egypt (c664BC-332BC), this artifact is now housed in the prestigious British Museum. Bastet, a significant deity in Egyptian mythology, was revered as a protector and guardian of both home and family. In this depiction, she exudes maternal warmth and tenderness as she cradles her playful offspring. The presence of an Aegis held by Bastet further emphasizes her role as a divine shield against evil forces. The rich color palette used in this photograph brings to life the intricate details of the sculpture, highlighting its historical significance. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when these majestic creatures were not only cherished companions but also symbols of religious devotion. The juxtaposition between the ancient world and our modern era is evident through this 20th-century photographic reproduction by CM Dixon. Through his lens, he captures not just an object but also evokes emotions tied to concepts such as faith and heritage. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries later, artifacts like these continue to inspire awe and fascination for their cultural value and artistic beauty.
