EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient art, the "Portrait of a thin-faced, bearded man" from 160-180 AD. Created using encaustic technique on limewood, this portrait is an exquisite example of Egyptian art during the Roman Period. The subject's face is beautifully captured with delicate brushstrokes and intricate details. His thin face and well-groomed beard give him an air of wisdom and sophistication. The curly hair frames his features elegantly, adding to the overall allure of the composition. Originally part of a funerary context in Egypt, this artwork was intended to accompany its owner into the afterlife. It served as both a remembrance and representation of the deceased individual.
