Another wonderful artistic interpretation of Anubis.
As I search the interwebs for things I love, I’ve been stumbling across so much AI slop imagery of the Gods of The Black lands.
It is a joy to come across something beautiful from a human mind.
I very much love Lockett’s use of colors here, especially the contrast between the typically black-skinned Anubis against the yellow/gold of his attire and objects.
The scythe is an odd choice of object for Anubis though.
Yes. He’s a psychopomp. But the scythe comes from the European Grim Reaper and has no connection to Anubis.
I’m not saying an artist can mix and match such things, as art is subjective, but from a historical viewpoint, and that is what I will always stand true with, it is very inaccurate.
