Live like a Rockefeller — An ancient Egyptian bas-relief

 

This 3,400-year-old limestone portrait is intertwined withthe Rockefeller family’s deep love of Egypt and its antiquities— combined with a generous commitment towards their preservation — as specialist G. Max Bernheimer explains

 

‘I remember first seeing this piece 20 years ago,’ says International Head of Antiquities G. Max Bernheimer of an Egyptian bas-relief from circa 1400-1250 B.C. ‘Along with my colleagues from Christie’s, we had been invited to David Rockefeller’s office in Rockefeller Center, which is like the Great Pyramid of New York.’

 

The limestone relief was purchased by David’s mother, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, from the art dealer Dikran Kelekian (1868-1951) not long before she visited Cairo in 1929. A notable collector of antiquities and ancient Islamic art, Kelekian and his brother established shops in Istanbul, Cairo, Paris, London and New York.
