EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Menphtah II, the esteemed successor to Ramses II, in all his regal glory. The illustration is a colorful lithograph created by Giuseppe Angelelli and can be found at the New York Public Library. It originates from "The Monuments of Egypt and Nubia" by Ippolito Rosellini, an influential work that delves into the rich history of ancient Egypt. In this depiction, Menphtah II exudes power and authority as he stands tall wearing an elaborate headdress adorned with a solar disc and uraeus. His falcon-headed appearance symbolizes his connection to Horus, the revered sun god of Egyptian mythology. Hieroglyphics surround him, providing insight into the language and culture of ancient Egypt. Menphtah II's presence is further enhanced by the inclusion of traditional Egyptian symbols such as the ankh—an emblem representing life—and various motifs associated with royalty. This image offers us a glimpse into a fascinating era when pharaohs ruled over vast territories encompassing both Egypt and Nubia. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and magnificence of ancient Egypt under Menphtah II's reign. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with civilizations long past while also celebrating their remarkable achievements in art, architecture, and cultural heritage.
