ORIGINAL SAVA DRAGANOV ARTWORK !!!

2021, "Taharqa" - wood wall sculpture

This original hand carved amerian walnut wood wall mask is one of the latest elaborate carving artworks of the talented Bulgarian professional sculptor Sava Draganov, deeply inspired by art deco style and folk art. It is 100% hand carved, no artificial influence. It is extraordinary wood masterpiece and exquisite home wall décor.

Taharqa (Egypt & Nubia, 25th Dynasty Reign 690 – 664 BCE) was the one of the Great Napatan Nubian kings/Pharoahs. After his father, Piye, successfully conquered Egypt in battle, Taharqa united the two kingdoms to form the largest African empire at the time. His empire spanned from the 5th Nile Cataract in Nubia, throughout all of Egypt, up into the Middle East in Palestine. Taharqa is credited with bringing new peace and stability to Egypt, resuming building projects and arts in Egypt and Nubia, which were lost for centuries, at the time. Biblical scholars believe he is referenced in the Bible book of Kings 19:9 and Isaiah 37:9 as the great King of Kush who waged war against Sennacherib, King of Assyria. There are several monuments to Taharqa, and recently, in January of 2015, a great tomb sanctuary to the Egyptian God Osiris was unearthed in Upper Egypt. Its construction was traced back to the 25th Dynasty, possibly during Taharqa’s reign.
