Anubis & Bastet.

New anthropomorphic themed illustrations based on my interest of the relationship between felines and canines (cats and dogs).

In Ancient Egypt, the Egyptian people about two-thousand years ago had gods and goddesses with animal formalities based on their so called symbolism and emulation such as strength, protection, and nurturing.

Anubis: god of funerals and guardian of the dead whose head is of a jackal.

Bastet: goddess of cats, protection and pleasure. Servant for the Sun God, Ra.

Here in this illustration is based on the so-called rumour of the relationship between Anubis and Bastet. So here in my imagination, the people of Ancient Egypt (year 113 B.C) under Queen Cleopatra III was under pressure between the rivalry between the dog people and the cat people.

A reference to William Shakespeare's Romero & Juliet, here we see Anubis and Bastet whose families hate each other but these two lovebirds had something special in them. They put aside their differences and fell in love as they look into each other's eyes. To avoid a war between their species and bring danger to the human Egyptians, they reveal how they meant for each other and once they see it, Ra will continue bring light throughout the land of Egypt including the waters of the river Nile.
