The story: Egyptian cartouches were used in ancient Egyptian art and writing to frame the names of pharaohs or high-ranking individuals. It symbolizes eternity and the importance of the person whose name is inscribed inside. Here, the vulture is a symbol of the goddess of Nekhbet, a deity who symbolized pharaonic protection, while the lion has become the symbol of valour transferred to the person of the Pharaoh and considered the “guardian” par excellence.
