Photography: New York Panorama, Queens Museum 5/2/24 I was invited to the third — yes, third! — Queens Rising launch press conference at the Queens Museum earlier this week.

Finally decided to finish my Piece by Piece OCs. Poor guys have been on the back burner for ages!

From left to right we have: Edith, Harper, Queen Lorenza, Esmerelda and Sven

They're all siblings, with Sven being oldest, and Edith and Esmerelda(twins) being youngest. Edith has been missing for a while, though... as has Harper, ever since the failed assasination of the white king, the one which Sven, since executed, was in on as well.

Esmerelda isn't doing too fine, either. Soon, she'll have to face the secret she has been trying so hard to keep from her kingdom. Sooner than she realizes...

~ Bundle of Hair Extensions.

Date: ca. 2114-1502 B.C.

Period: Old Kingdom-early New Kingdom; 16th-18th Dynasty

Medium: Human hair, linen

▪︎ From the source: These hair extensions would have been placed in a tomb for use in the afterlife. In this world, Egyptians used extensions to make their wigs or natural hair thicker and more attractive, just as people do today. The reliefs in this case show hairdressers adding extensions like these to the hair or wig of Queen Neferu.

Monarchies are only fun in fiction. But overthrowing a monarchy in real life could be very fun

Fragment of an oinochoe (wine jug) depicting Queen Berenike II. Hellenistic Period, Ptolemaic Egypt, 246-221 B.C. Faience. In the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Description from the Met:

Ptolemaic oinochoai (wine-jugs) with portraits of the queens were libation vessels associated with the royal cult, and surely also emphasized the identification of Ptolemaic queens with the Egyptian goddess Isis... Queen Berenike II (246-221 B.C.) is almost certainly represented on this fragment. Her relatively long reign accounts for the different styles that have been attributed to her early, middle, and mature reign. This fragment depicts the queen in what has been termed the mature style, wearing the stephane that the Ptolemaic queens adopted from Greek goddesses... The queen holds the cornucopia adopted by Ptolemies as their insignia, its contents consisting of sheaves of wheat, rather indistinct cakes, and a bunch of grapes that spilled from the mouth of the horn to which only a break edge testifies.

This poor little guy was having a very bad day. Poor bunny. And you can tell that some kid loved this bunny immensely. Hopefully, he’s returned to his kid.
