EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Relief of Cleopatra and Caesarion, a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of ancient Egypt. Dating back to the late Ptolemaic and Roman periods, this stone carving is located in the Temple of Hathor at Dendera. In this intricate relief, we witness Queen Cleopatra VII and her son Caesarion standing before the revered deities Isis and Osiris. The vibrant colors used in this artwork bring life to their figures, emphasizing their royal status and divine connection. As an architectural feature within the temple dedicated to Hathor and Horus the Elder at Abydos, it serves as a symbol of worship for both locals and visitors alike. The sculpture beautifully captures not only Cleopatra's regal presence but also her deep devotion as she worships alongside her son. This artifact holds immense historical value, shedding light on both religious practices during that era as well as depicting an intimate family moment between mother and child. Through archaeological discoveries like these, we gain invaluable insights into ancient Egyptian civilization – its artistry, spirituality, architecture – all contributing to our understanding of this magnificent country's past. This photograph by CM Dixon allows us to appreciate such treasures from afar while igniting our curiosity about Egypt's glorious heritage.
