EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Stele with Ra as Hawk, Sun symbol and Eyes, on Stele of Lady Taperet, dating back to the period between 850 BC and 690 BC. Crafted from painted wood during Egypt's Third Intermediate Period, this artifact is believed to have originated in the region of Thebes. The stele features a remarkable depiction of Ra, the ancient Egyptian sun god, portrayed as a majestic hawk. His eyes are prominently displayed alongside a powerful sun symbol. The vibrant colors used in this artwork bring life to the wooden surface and evoke a sense of reverence for this deity. As an important religious object, this stele represents the deep connection between ancient Egyptians and their worship of celestial bodies. It serves as a testament to their fascination with astronomy and their belief in divine entities governing both life and death. The significance of this artifact lies not only in its artistic beauty but also in its historical value. It provides us with valuable insights into ancient Egyptian culture, beliefs, and rituals surrounding death and worshipping deities like Ra. Preserved through centuries, this stele stands as an enduring reminder of our shared human history. Its presence invites contemplation about our place within the vastness of time while honoring those who came before us in Mizraim – ancient Egypt's name – more than two millennia ago.
