Egyptian ancient art

The only Egypt postcards I received are from my penpal Nada. In 2007 my aunty went to visit Egypt and bought me some postcards but I still didn’t fancy plain unwritten cards so I chose to send most of them away on swaps and only kept a few that I liked most (I thought I have scanned them, but somehow missing from the Flickr). Anyways. Here are postcards from Nada, both showing the art from ancient Egypt.

This art was drawn on a piece of timber skin, showing the goddess Maat and Hathor. However, even Nada doesn’t know who Maat was.

This art was drawn on the Tomb of Sennufer Pharaoh. Its colors are still there althought it has some damage now. Come to think about it, this was a masterpiece of people from 4000 years back. Amazing, isn’t it?
