This print showcases an exquisite Amulet of the Goddess Hathor, believed to be from Egypt's New Kingdom-Late Period (about 1550-332 BCE). Crafted with meticulous detail and skill, this ancient Egyptian artifact is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Africa. The amulet features a beautifully carved stone head of the goddess Hathor, who was revered as the embodiment of femininity and protection in Egyptian mythology. With its close-up view, vibrant colors, and intricate carving, this photograph allows us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating such a significant religious object. As we gaze upon this amulet, we are transported back in time to an era when religion played a central role in society.

It represents an important link between past civilizations and our present understanding of ancient beliefs. Through its presence in contemporary spaces dedicated to preserving heritage art from around the world, this image invites viewers to reflect on concepts such as gender roles, protection, religion, and spirituality that transcend time and geographical boundaries.
