EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable bronze statuette of the infant Horus, an Egyptian god, discovered in the depths of the river Thames in London. The statuette, currently housed in the prestigious British Museum, exudes a sense of divine beauty and mystique. Standing against a black background, this studio shot captures every intricate detail with precision. The infant Horus is depicted with enchanting wings reminiscent of Cupid's ethereal flight. Adorned with a vine-wreath symbolizing Bacchus and crowned by Luna's crescent moon, he embodies various aspects of Roman mythology. Additionally, perched on his shoulder is Minerva's wise owl—a powerful emblem representing knowledge and wisdom. This artifact offers us a glimpse into ancient Egypt's rich religious traditions and beliefs surrounding infancy and divinity. Its exquisite craftsmanship highlights the skillful artistry prevalent during that era. Photographed by CM Dixon (not affiliated with any company), this image preserves the vibrant colors and delicate features that make this bronze statuette truly extraordinary. It serves as a testament to human creativity across time and borders. As we marvel at this piece from Italy—now residing far from its original homeland—we are reminded of how art transcends boundaries, connecting people through shared cultural heritage.
