EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases a captivating portrait of Ramesses II, one of the most celebrated Pharaohs of the ancient Egyptian civilization. Dating back to the New Kingdom period, around the 13th century BC (before Christ), this portrait is believed to have been created during the Merneptah or Ramesses II's reign, making it an invaluable piece of history. Ramesses II, also known as Ramses the Great, ruled Egypt during the 19th or 19th Dynasty. He is renowned for his military conquests, which expanded the Egyptian empire to its greatest size in history. This bust, with its intricately carved details, captures the powerful and regal presence of the Pharaoh. His distinctive beard, worn in the traditional Egyptian style, frames his strong, angular face. The head is adorned with the royal Atef crown, symbolizing the union of Upper and Lower Egypt. The Temple of Luxor, located in modern-day Luxor, Egypt, is the likely origin of this magnificent artwork. The temple, dedicated to the Theban Triad, is one of the most famous and best-preserved ancient Egyptian temples. The temple complex, which includes the Temple of Karnak, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a testament to the grandeur and artistic achievements of the ancient Egyptian civilization. This print offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the history and culture of one of the world's oldest civilizations. It is a must-have for any history enthusiast, art collector, or anyone interested in the mysteries of ancient Egypt.
