Papyrus Painting - King Tut and His Wife Honeymoon on the Nile Golden Highlights

King Tut and his bride Ankhesenamon are shown here sailing down the Nile on what is popularly termed their honeymoon.

The Lotus flower is prominent - the ancient symbol of love, has many deep rich meanings.  Often associated with rebirth, sun, creation, and the symbolism extends to the unification, joining of the two Egyptians kingdoms..   Their royal cartouches are shown at the top of the scene.   The abundance of fish and fowl seem to indicate an era of plenty.

*****NOTICE**** Changes implemented by the Ministry of Antiquities requires all papyrus to be inspected by an expert - what this means is that while your order will show as shipped, it may in fact be on hold at the Cairo airport pending inspection. For this reason we are not able to combine papyrus orders with anything else, i.e. papyrus and jewelry, or glassworks etc. If you are ordering something else in addition to the papyrus you must order it separately. We apologize for any delays that may occur, ultimately it is about the preservation of the history of Egypt.
