Framed Papyrus Art depicting King Tutankhamun

This item is a framed piece of papyrus artwork featuring a head-and-shoulders depiction of King Tutankhamun, recognizable by his distinctive nemes headdress with the cobra and vulture emblems. The artwork is presented in a rectangular frame with a gold-toned finish, suggesting either polished metal or a painted wood/resin material. Inside the frame, a black mat board surrounds the papyrus, which is further set against a light brown or tan backing. The papyrus itself, characterized by its fibrous and slightly textured surface, bears the hand-painted image of the pharaoh. His regalia is depicted in vibrant blues, golds, and reddish-browns, showcasing the traditional colors associated with ancient Egyptian art. The blues are particularly prominent in the stripes of the nemes and the ceremonial collar, while gold accents highlight features like the pharaoh's crown cobra, beard, and details on the collar. The pharaoh's skin tone appears a rich reddish-brown. The visible texture of the papyrus indicates its authentic material, and subtle variations in color and faint lines suggest its age or natural characteristics. There are no obvious signs of significant damage such as tears or large stains visible through the frame, though the papyrus as a natural material inherently displays minor irregularities. The overall presentation, with the matting and framing, enhances its display quality, suggesting it was intended as decorative art. The 'Signed' in the online listing title implies the artwork may bear an artist's signature, though it is not discernible in the provided image. This piece is likely a modern reproduction or artistic interpretation of ancient Egyptian themes, created as decorative art rather than an authentic ancient artifact. The style is illustrative, aiming to capture the iconic imagery of ancient Egypt.
