Description
Egypt, Papyrus, Decorative Painting, Modern Period
A modern Egyptian decorative painting executed on handmade papyrus paper, depicting a royal scene in the Ancient Egyptian style. The central imagery features a seated pharaoh, likely Tutankhamun, in an intimate exchange with a kneeling queen, possibly Ankhesenamun. The figures are adorned in traditional regalia and jewellery, including broad wesekh collars and elaborate headdresses, rendered in a vibrant colour palette of gold, blue, and red. The scene is accompanied by vertical hieroglyphic cartouches and is grounded by a decorative black and gold border. The reverse of the papyrus retains a printed guarantee certificate in Arabic, English, and French, confirming the substrate was produced in an Egyptian factory farm. Dimensions: 61 cm x 46 cm.
