EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact known as the Palette, originating from Egypt during the Middle Kingdom, specifically Dynasty 12-13 (approximately 1985-1650 BCE). The creator of this enigmatic piece remains unknown. Crafted from diorite gneiss, this palette is an exquisite example of ancient Egyptian artistry. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate marbling and coloration present on the stone surface. Predominantly black in hue with hints of yellow, it exudes an air of mystery and elegance. This palette served a practical purpose in ancient times - it was used for grinding cosmetics or pigments for makeup application. Housed within the esteemed Art Institute Chicago's gallery dedicated to African arts, this object stands as a testament to Africa's rich cultural heritage. Its presence evokes curiosity about its origins and significance within Egyptian society during that era. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when Egypt thrived as one of history's greatest civilizations. It serves as a reminder that even amidst the passage of centuries, art continues to connect us with our ancestors' creativity and ingenuity.
