Papyrus Painting - King Tut  Perfuming His Wife Natural Background

Product Description:  Papyrus painting King Tut perfuming his wife, natural papyrus canvas.

According to the ancient Egyptian sage Ptah Hotep,  'If you are a sensible and a successful person, love your wife truly and honestly. Feed her and dress her. Beware!  Perfumes are the best treatment for her body." That was how the ancient Egyptians, especially women, appreciated perfumes. The husband was urged to provide perfumes for his wife...including Kings.  Here King Tut is lavishing his wife Ankhesanamum with perfume.

All papyrus paintings are sent with "rough" edges, easily trimmed to fit your framing needs.

*****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.
