EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable relief sculpture of the revered goddess Hathor, found in the Temple of Horus in Edfu, Egypt. Created during the Ptolemaic Period between 251 BC and 246 BC, this exquisite artwork depicts Hathor holding the Ankh, symbolizing life, before a Pharaoh. The intricate carving on stone beautifully captures the divine presence of Hathor, who is portrayed as a female deity with great power and significance in Egyptian mythology. The vibrant colors used to adorn this relief add depth and richness to its overall composition. As an archaeological site of immense historical importance, Edfu's Temple of Horus stands as a testament to ancient religious practices and worship. This artifact serves as a tangible link to Egypt's rich cultural heritage and provides valuable insights into their beliefs surrounding deities like Hathor.
