Nefertiti, the rich queen with only one god
Nowadays we know Nefertiti mostly thanks to her legendary bust, in which the queen wears a fantastic tall cap and a painted necklace, as well as an opulent expression, as if she were the owner of everything.
What we know today of this legendary queen indicates that in her time (neither more nor less than around 1350 BC) she was Akhenaten's wife and that, in addition to being one of the richest dynasties of which they reigned, they also made a religious revolution, since the family only worshiped Aten, the sun god, making him a unique deity.
It is unclear what happened to Nefertiti after her husband's death, although there are experts who argue that she possibly reigned before her son (the famous Tutankhamun), came to power. It is also not very clear what happened when Nefertiti died. Some say that the queen fell from grace and others that it was possibly Queen Neferneferuaten.
How to get inspired by a tattoo?
The most obvious thing to inspire us in a Nefertiti tattoo is to reproduce her famous bust, either in a realistic way to a more personalized design and even with another style, more cute or even traditional. In any case, strong and strong colors will suit you wonderfully.
Another possibility is to be inspired by the other pictorial and artistic styles that reigned in ancient Egypt. For example, a lot of hieroglyphs surrounding the queen can work in a black and white design, or the typical Egyptian scroll (with people on the side) will look great in color.
