EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Egypt, specifically the reign of Rameses II. The image, captured by an English photographer in the 19th century, showcases the grandeur and power of this legendary Egyptian pharaoh. Rameses II, also known as Ramesses the Great, was the third king of the Nineteenth Dynasty. He ruled Egypt for an impressive 66 years during a period often referred to as its golden age. This photograph offers a glimpse into his majestic presence and regal demeanor. The composition exudes a sense of mystery and awe as we observe Rameses II through the lens of history. His strong features are accentuated by shadows cast upon his face, adding depth to his expression. It is evident that this portrait captures not only his physical appearance but also hints at his immense authority and wisdom. Originally featured in George Ch Dovas' "Souvenir of Egypt" in 1898, this image has become an iconic representation of one of Egypt's most influential rulers. Preserved within a private collection, it serves as a testament to both Rameses II's enduring legacy and the artistic prowess displayed by English photographers during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back thousands of years to witness firsthand the greatness embodied by Rameses II - a true titan among pharaohs.
