Egyptian Papyrus The Musicians of the Nile (60 x 90 cm red and black version)

A fragment of eternal Egypt: a genuine papyrus celebrating the grace and music of the Nile.

This Egyptian papyrus is made in Egypt, in the Nile Delta, using the iconic papyrus plant with the original method. Created in mixed media, the composition featuring three musicians is inspired by the famous tomb of Nakht (scribe and astronomer at the Temple of Amun) located in the Valley of the Nobles at Gournah, during the 18th Dynasty (around 1400 BC).

This iconography is also influenced by the refined style of the draftsman and Egyptologist Émile Prisse d’Avennes, whose precise lines and nuanced palettes marked the history of Orientalist art in the 19th century. These inspirations are what make the beauty of Nilazur’s papyrus selection.

A scene of music and life

In ancient Egypt, music held a central place in religious rituals, ceremonies, and festivals. The musicians played the harp, lute, flute, sistrum, or tambourine, accompanying sacred songs or moments of celebration. This papyrus captures all their grace and elegance.
