About the artwork

The ibis was the sacred bird of Thoth -- god of writing, wisdom, and the moon. Egyptians associated its curved beak with the crescent moon and its patient wading with careful thought. Millions of ibis mummies have been found at Saqqara, offerings from pilgrims seeking Thoth's wisdom. Our design places the sacred birds among lotus blossoms under a golden arch, in the decorative style of temple wall panels.

Details

Two elegant ibis birds wade through a lotus pond inside a gilded arch -- a scene straight from the marshes of the ancient Nile. Serene, balanced, and full of quiet symbolism, this is Egyptian nature worship at its most beautiful.
