EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate stoppers in the form of the king's head from the four canopic urns discovered in the tomb of pharaoh Tutankhamun. Found deep within the Valley of the Kings, Thebes, Egypt, these remarkable artifacts offer a glimpse into ancient Egyptian history and culture. Carved with meticulous detail out of alabaster stone, each stopper represents one of the four sons of Horus - Imsety, Hapy, Duamutef, and Qebehsenuef. These canopic jars were used to store and protect vital organs during mummification rituals. The photograph beautifully captures their timeless beauty against a backdrop that exudes an air of mystery and reverence.

For those who appreciate archaeology or have a love for ancient civilizations, this print is sure to be cherished as it encapsulates both artistry and historical significance. A true testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
