Mural of Female Musicians | Handcrafted Egyptian Replica
This panel reproduces a famous scene from the tomb of Nakht in Luxor — a Theban official of the 18th Dynasty (around 1410 BCE). Three women musicians fill the wall: the first plays the lyre, the second plays the oud as she dances, and the third plays the flute. The scene captures a banquet in the afterlife, where music and feasting accompany the deceased into eternity.
Tomb murals like Nakht's are among the most intimate records left by the ancient Egyptians — domestic, joyful, and human, in contrast to the formal grandeur of temple reliefs. The original is one of the most photographed wall paintings of the New Kingdom.
This is a hand-finished reproduction made in Cairo by Egyptian artisans, sculpted in low relief on a stone-effect resin panel. The figures, instruments and pigment palette are carried over from the original. Ready to mount or display freestanding.
