Wonderful Things Art
Authentic Reproductions of Ancient Egyptian Art by Natalie Watson
About the Artwork
Reproduction of a Naqada II period pottery jar in the Metropolitan Museum collection dating to around c. 3450 to 3330 BC.
It depicts three boats travelling in procession within the Nile Valley landscape, with desert ibex shown in close proximity to flying birds and mountains, as well as flamingos surrounded by water plants. The boats each hold a different set of figures accompanied by individual standards, acting a ceremony or ritual and being observed by groups of people on the land nearby.
