Anton Prinner's 1948 illustration for the Egyptian Book of the Dead features a stylized figure with multiple arms and eyes, a visual representation of the ancient Egyptian belief in multiple lives. The figure's elongated body and prominent eyes create a sense of otherworldliness, contrasting with the stark black and white palette, a common aesthetic for the artist. The illustration's simplicity and powerful imagery evoke the mysterious and ancient world of the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
