EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Egyptian antiquity: an alabaster perfume vase in the shape of Sema-Tauy, symbolizing the union of Upper and Lower Egypt. This remarkable piece originates from the treasure of Tutankhamun, a pharaoh who reigned during the 18th dynasty (1345-1327 BC). Discovered in the Valley of Kings in Thebes, this artifact dates back to 1342 BC. Standing at an impressive height of 75 cm, this albaster perfume vase is currently housed in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. Its intricate design and craftsmanship reflect the artistic brilliance of ancient Egypt. Adorned with hieroglyphs and delicate carvings, it not only served as a container for precious perfumes but also held great cultural significance. The Sema-Tauy motif depicted on this vase represents unity and harmony between Upper and Lower Egypt. It serves as a powerful reminder of Egypt's rich history and its deep-rooted belief in balance and cohesion. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured every detail through her lens, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and historical importance of this artifact. Through her artistry, she invites us to delve into ancient civilizations and explore their timeless treasures.
