EDITORS COMMENTS
This statue depicts Ashurnasirpal II, the powerful and renowned Assyrian king who ruled from 883 to 859 BC. The statue, created in the 9th century BC and now housed at the British Museum in London, United Kingdom, was discovered at the Temple of Ishtar Sharrat-niphi in Nimrud, Iraq. Ashurnasirpal II is shown standing barefoot, a sign of royal authority, with a regal bearing and a determined expression. He is dressed in the traditional Assyrian attire, with a long robe reaching down to his ankles and a short tunic underneath. The king is holding a mace in his right hand, symbolizing his power and military might, while in his left hand, he holds a sickle, signifying his role as a vice regent and agricultural provider for his kingdom. The statue's inscription, written in cuneiform script, reveals that Ashurnasirpal II commissioned this statue for his own glory and to commemorate his victories. The intricate details of the statue, including the king's beard and the decorative elements on the pedestal, showcase the exceptional craftsmanship of the Neo-Assyrian period. This powerful and evocative statue offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient Assyria, a civilization that once dominated the ancient Near East.
