EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the "Statue of the Lady Nay" from the New Kingdom era in ancient Egypt. Carved out of pinewood and adorned with a delicate gold veneer, this 31 cm tall statue is a true testament to the artistic mastery of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty. The statue depicts a female figure standing on a pedestal, her plaited hair cascading down her back. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every curve and contour of her body has been meticulously carved into the wood. Her elegant posture exudes grace and poise, capturing the essence of femininity in ancient Egypt. What makes this artwork even more intriguing is that she wears a wooden wig, which was commonly used by women during that time period to enhance their beauty. This unique feature adds an element of authenticity and historical significance to this stunning piece. Currently housed at Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only its visual appeal but also its cultural importance. It serves as a window into ancient Egyptian society and provides us with valuable insights into their beliefs and artistic practices. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this timeless masterpiece without compromising any commercial use restrictions. With every glance at this photo print, one can't help but be transported back in time to marvel at the skillful artistry that continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
