Bouquet capital, Thebes, Egypt, (1928). Creator: Unknown
Bouquet capital, Thebes, Egypt, (1928). So-called bouquet capitals (papyrus clusters, lilies, nymphaea) as depicted on wall paintings and made of wood...1120 B.C...from the Theban tomb of " Aichesi", the Arch-priest, the Superintendent of the Altar and the writings of the Temple of Amun" from the time of Rameses IX (1142-1123 B.C). As the name " Aichesi" has evidently been mis-read, it should probably be " Imisiba" who had the same titles and lived at the end of the XXth Dynasty (perhaps under Rameses X) and was buried in Thebes. After Prisse D Avennes. Plate V, fig 14, from " An Encyclopaedia of Colour Decoration from the Earliest Times to the Middle of the XIXth Century" with explanatory text by Helmuth Bossert. [Ernst Wasmuth Ltd. Berlin, 1928]
