A vintage plate of ancient Egyptian painting showing an offering to Osiris. The god sits enthroned in white on a richly patterned throne, a sun disc above his head, while a worshipper offers flowers and a table of fruit and loaves stands between them. A figure in a dotted robe waits behind, and columns of hieroglyphs and a great winged sun crown the arched scene. Soft yellows, turquoise and terracotta sit on a pale paper tone with fine French captions below, in the style of a 19th-century archaeological print. A refined choice for a study, library or hallway. Printed on premium matte paper for a crisp, high-quality finish.
