TREASURES OF THE PHARAOHS - 1982
An Elizabeth Arden Christmas inspired by the splendor of ancient Egypt. Egypt - gift of the Nile. Egypt - a narrow green oasis ribboning 700 long miles through mountains and desert until it reaches the sea. The ancient Egyptians were in awe of the Nile's life giving inundations. They were in awe of all the forces of nature. The sun. The moon. The animals that roamed Egypt's shores and deserts. These were their deities.
Their King - The Pharaoh - was also a god. A living god whose power was all encompassing... and eternal. While the Pharaoh and his Queen reigned, all of Egypt prepared for his life in eternity. The finest craftsmen in ancient Egypt worked to provide all that he would need in the afterlife. They filled his tomb with immense riches, splendid jewels, gold inlaid furniture, beautifully turned urns and vessels, fragrant unguents and scented oils, ceremonial wigs and finely pleated linen robes. They painted the walls with vibrant murals, carved columns and obelisks and colonnades with intricate heiroglyphics.
They raised lasting monuments so that he - and they - would live forever.
These awesome monuments, these magnificent riches were the inspiration for "The Treasure of the Pharaohs"
