The journey beyond life is at the heart of this Book of the Dead wood plaque. Its funerary scenes evoke the rituals, divine protection and hope for renewed life that shaped ancient Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife.

The Book of the Dead brought together spells and images intended to guide and protect the deceased on that journey. Here, the subject becomes a decorative panel for a collection centred on Egyptian history, mythology or sacred art. The tall composition gives its ceremonial imagery room to unfold, making it a companion to the second Book of the Dead plaque or a piece to display on its own.

Material: Wood.
Dimensions: 18 × 8 inches (45.72 × 20.32 cm).
One plaque.
