EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite artifact from the ancient Egyptian civilization. Dating back to the 4th millennium B.

Against a black background, the intricate patterns in contrasting black and white create a stunning visual impact. The concentric circles on this disc reflect the meticulous craftsmanship of early dynastic Egypt during Dynasty I. Its simplicity is reminiscent of an era where art and craft were highly valued, showcasing the skillful hands that created it thousands of years ago.
