EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Egyptian Chess Players, 1868" transports us back in time to witness a moment of intense concentration and strategic thinking. Created by the talented artist Alma-Tadema, this artwork showcases his mastery of pencil and watercolor techniques, heightened with scratching out. In this scene, we find ourselves immersed in an ancient Egyptian setting where two individuals engage in a game of chess. The atmosphere is palpable as both players are deeply engrossed in their moves. The female player sits gracefully on a chair adorned with intricate wall paintings while wearing an elaborate headdress that symbolizes her status and elegance. Her focused gaze reveals her determination to outwit her opponent. The male player opposite her mirrors her intensity as he contemplates his next move. With every stroke of the pencil and brushstroke, Alma-Tadema captures the essence of their concentration and dedication to the game. Beyond being just a simple board game, this artwork hints at deeper themes such as strategy, competition, and human interaction through play. It also alludes to the rich history of Egypt's ancient civilization by incorporating elements like senet—a popular Egyptian board game from antiquity—into the composition. As we admire this remarkable piece from our private collection, let us appreciate Alma-Tadema's ability to transport us across time and space while reminding us that games have always been an integral part of human culture throughout history.
