Egyptian Papyrus Key of Life - Ankh (30x40cm)

Description :

Discover this beautiful Egyptian papyrus representing the Key of Life, or ankh, handcrafted in the Nile Delta with the emblematic papyrus plant, using traditional methods. Each piece is then enhanced by artistic work in mixed media, combining block print and gouache with beautiful golden highlights.

The ankh, an emblematic symbol of ancient Egypt, embodies life, the union of masculine and feminine principles, as well as the divine power of creation. The upper loop evokes the rising sun, while the horizontal bar represents the earthly horizon and the vertical bar symbolizes the sun's path. The hieroglyphs surrounding the ankh are blessings or invocations related to life, health, and prosperity. Inspired by Tutankhamun's treasure key, this artwork is much more than a simple historical artifact; it is a living symbol that continues to inspire and fascinate.
