EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of two colossal statues of Ramses II, proudly standing on the right side of the façade of the Great Temple of Abu Simbel in Lower Nubia. The temple itself is a testament to ancient Egyptian art and civilization, now situated in its present location after being carefully relocated to make way for the creation of Nasser Lake. Dating back to approximately 1260 BC during the Nineteenth Dynasty of Egypt's New Kingdom, these magnificent statues depict Ramses II, one of Egypt's most renowned pharaohs. Adorned with a headdress that symbolizes his civilian, military, and religious roles, Ramses II exudes power and authority through this remarkable artwork. The photograph captures intricate details such as fashion and clothing worn by Ramses II. It offers a glimpse into ancient Egyptian culture with its depiction of male nudity and human body form. These elements reflect not only artistic mastery but also shed light on societal norms prevalent during that era. Ramses II was considered a legendary figure in Egyptian mythology, known for his military conquests and architectural achievements. This portrait immortalizes him as an iconic personage from history whose legacy continues to fascinate us today. Taken around 1970 AD by Pietro Ronchetti from Alinari, this image serves as a visual time capsule bridging over three thousand years between when it was created and when it depicts. It allows us to appreciate both the skillful craftsmanship behind ancient Egyptian artistry while marveling at how it has endured throughout centuries. In summary, this print transports viewers back in time to witness the awe-inspiring presence of two colossal statues honoring Ramses II at Abu Simbel's Great Temple—a true testament to Africa's rich ancient civilization.
