Papyrus Key of Life Ankh

Description :

Discover this magnificent Egyptian papyrus representing the key of life, or ankh, handmade in the Nile Delta with the emblematic papyrus plant, according to traditional methods. Each piece is then sublimated by an artistic work in mixed media, combining various techniques such as block printing, Indian ink, oil painting and glitter.

The ankh, an iconic symbol of ancient Egypt, embodies life, the union of masculine and feminine principles, and the divine power of creation. The upper loop evokes the rising sun, while the horizontal bar represents the earth’s 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 the key to Tutankhamun’s treasure, this work of art is much more than just a historical artifact; it is a living symbol that continues to inspire and fascinate.
