EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of a relief depicting the head of a pharaoh from the 19th Dynasty in ancient Egypt. Carved out of stone, this exquisite artwork is believed to date back to the period between 1292 and 1187 BC. The relief can be found at the Temple of Luxor in Luxor, Egypt. In this particular fragment, we are presented with an enchanting profile view of the pharaoh's head adorned with the crown of Upper Egypt. The intricate carvings depict a snake-like creature known as an ureus, which symbolizes royalty and divine power in Egyptian culture. The craftsmanship exhibited in this relief is truly remarkable, showcasing incredible attention to detail and skillful sculpting techniques. Every curve and line on the pharaoh's face conveys a sense of regality and authority that was associated with these ancient rulers. Gerard Degeorge has masterfully captured this momentous piece through his lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even from afar. This photograph not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insight into the rich history and artistic legacy left behind by one of civilization's greatest empires.
