Hand Painted + Framed Ancient Egyptian Papyrus, Set of Two

 


Design Plus Gallery presents a Set of Two Hand Painted Ancient Egyptian Papyrus Artwork. One artwork is of “Nefertari Offerings”. Nefertari offerings, famously depicted in her stunning tomb in Egypt’s Valley of the Queens, show her presenting essential goods like food (lettuce, meat, fruit), drink (wine/beer), oils, incense, and symbolic items (lotus flowers, nemset jars) to powerful deities like Isis, Hathor, Ma’at, and Osiris, ensuring her successful journey and sustenance in the afterlife, a common practice for royalty to secure eternal life. The second is of “Tutankhamun Anointed by Wife”. The depiction of “Tutankhamun Anointed by Wife” refers to an intimate and famous scene found on the backrest of Tutankhamun’s golden throne. The artwork shows his wife, Ankhesenamun, applying perfumed oil or ointment to his collar or shoulder. Both are in good condition with unique frames offering a matte around. They are in good condition with minimal wear from usage.
