EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Portrait head of Sesostris III" from a sphinx, dating back to the Middle Kingdom around 1850 BC. Crafted out of diorite by the skilled artisans of the Egyptian 12th Dynasty, this royal masterpiece measures 21.9x33.2x32.1 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria. The regal countenance of Sesostris III, an influential pharaoh who reigned from 1878-43 BC, is beautifully captured in this portrait head despite some visible damage over time. Adorned with a magnificent nemes headdress that symbolizes his kingship and authority, it serves as a testament to his power and prestige during ancient Egypt's golden age. Through intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail, this artwork offers us a glimpse into the grandeur of Egyptian civilization thousands of years ago. The stoic expression on Sesostris III's face reflects both wisdom and strength befitting a ruler who left an indelible mark on history.
