拍品資料及來源
Deriving her name from the ancient Egyptian word 'sekhem,' or 'powerful one,' Sekhmet was depicted as a lioness. A solar deity, said to be the daughter of the sun god Ra, she was the warrior goddess and the goddess of healing for Upper Egypt, the protector of the pharaohs, and it was believed that her breath created the desert.
This is one of two brooches depicting the top of an Egyptian fan that were made by Cartier London in 1923. The other was sold at Sotheby's New York Magnificent Jewels auction on December 4, 2007, lot 273.
