Fayum Mummy Portraits

They come from Roman Egypt, mostly dating from the 1st to 3rd centuries CE.

Painted on wooden panels, many were placed over the faces of mummified bodies, giving the dead an astonishingly life like presence.

To those saying "it just means brotherly love", of course it can. But the original city was called Fayum Philadelphia, founded by by Ptolemy Philadelphus, so-called because he married his sister.

Conocí los retratos de Fayum por John Berger y me volaron la cabeza
The stunning mummy portrait of Eirene is one of the few mummy portraits that bears an inscription. It mentions the deceased as well as her parents: Eirene, daughter of Silvanos, her mother is Senpnoutis. May her soul live forever before Osiris-Sokar, the great god, the Lord of Abydos. 🧵1/2

Fayum Mummy Portrait flanked by Gods, Egypt, ca.1st century CE

While this looks like it could have been painted yesterday, it’s actually a 1,700 year old (!) portrait from a Fayum mummy in modern day Egypt. This is one of ~900 of these portraits from the era, which broke from a more stylized tradition, and represented the subject more naturally.
