Ahmose, Son of Ebana Reproduction shows a wall painting from the tomb of Ahmose, son of Ebana, at Elkab (c. 1550–1525 BC, early Dynasty 18). Purchase Print About the Artwork My reproduction depicts a wall painting from the tomb of Ahmose, son of Ebana, at Elkab (c. 1550–1525 BC, early Dynasty 18). Ahmose was a distinguished naval officer who served under Seqenenre Tao, Kamose, and Ahmose I, and whose career spanned the wars that expelled the Hyksos and secured Egypt’s reunification. On the walls of his modest cliff-cut tomb, he recorded one of the most detailed first-person military autobiographies known from ancient Egypt. The text not only recounts his bravery in battle and the rewards he received but also provides invaluable historical evidence for Egypt’s military and political transformation at the dawn of the New Kingdom. In this scene, Ahmose is shown in large scale, the traditional marker of his status and authority. At his feet, rendered in smaller scale, is his grandson Pahery, who would later become a scribe of Amun and was responsible for overseeing the decoration of his grandfather’s tomb (dedicated in the blue hieroglyphics). The (gold) hieroglyphic columns visible here contain the opening lines of Ahmose’s autobiography, which situate him firmly within the service of the Theban kings and the divine order they embodied.

See Past Projects Explore Retail Options Private Commissions & Personalised Art I also take on private commissions, creating unique pieces that blend personal stories with the timeless beauty of ancient Egyptian art. Past commissions have included: A wedding portrait for an Egyptologist, featuring the couple in a feasting scene with a personalised hieroglyphic inscription A funerary stela design in memory of a loved one who had a deep appreciation for ancient Egypt A tattoo design based on a temple wall relief, incorporating protective symbols and name elements Many of my existing artworks can also be personalised, such as adding a name in a cartouche to make the piece truly about you or your loved one. These commissions are deeply collaborative and often very meaningful. I’m always honoured to help bring people’s connections to ancient Egypt to life through art. Personalised Prints Contact Me How I Recreate Ancient Egyptian Art Research: The Foundation of Everything Accuracy is at the heart of my work. Each piece begins with in-depth research into the original site, period, and purpose of the artwork. I consult archaeological reports, museum publications, historical sketches, and modern high-resolution photography to understand both the art and its context. When pieces are damaged or incomplete, I reference similar examples from the same period or site to reconstruct the missing elements as faithfully as possible. Drawing the Lines: Precision and Structure Ancient Egyptian artists followed strict compositional rules. I replicate their approach digitally by setting up baselines and registers in Photoshop, using red for initial drafts and black for final outlines, just as they did. Working from high-resolution imagery, I correct for lens distortion and surface warping, then use close-up references to redraw fine details. Where necessary, I fill in lost areas with comparisons from matching artworks to retain stylistic authenticity. Adding Colour: Symbolism and Tradition Colour in ancient Egypt carried symbolic meaning. I work with a carefully curated palette based on natural mineral pigments used in antiquity, ochres, carbon, malachite, azurite, and more. I digitally paint each piece by adding colour beneath the drawn lines, recreating the original look and feel of polychrome wall paintings. This process allows me to save both monochrome line versions and full-colour renderings of each artwork. “I've never come across such authentic renderings before… the colours are so vibrant and the detail is remarkable.” - Mark, Somerset, UK Sharing the Stories Behind the Scenes Each reproduction reveals something new, whether it’s a hidden detail, a translation of hieroglyphs, or a glimpse into the ancient artist’s process. I document these discoveries in short articles, which you can explore here on my website. They're written to make academic research accessible and to enrich your appreciation of the pieces.
