About the Artwork
Reproduction of a tomb painting from the Tomb of Pashedu in the worker's village of Deir el-Medina.
The corridor to the burial chamber is guarded by a large painting on either wall of the god Anubis in the form of a black jackal, sitting alert on a shrine with cavetto cornices. Since the first dynasty of Egypt’s history in c. 3100 BC, Anubis was being depicted as a protector of graves
