Beauty was expressed in everything, from objects that were used in daily life, including jewelry, eating utensils, and even tools used for hunting, through to those that were intended for the afterlife. The ancient Egyptian’s passion for depicting life beyond death and how he conveyed the beauty that lies in the concept of resurrection was expressed with the unparalleled creativity and beautifully expressed details with which he decorated coffins and adorned mummies.
