EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring Colossal statue of Ramses II as a child, accompanied by the god Horus. Crafted with meticulous detail using granitoid rock and limestone, this masterpiece hails from the New Kingdom era of Egyptian civilization. Belonging to Dynasty XIX in the Kingdom of Ramses II, it stands tall at an impressive height of 2.31 meters and was discovered in Tanis. The statue depicts young Ramses II seated alongside Horus, symbolizing their divine connection. As one gazes upon this ancient artifact, they are transported back in time to witness the rich history and religious beliefs that shaped ancient Egypt's culture. With its intricate carvings and lifelike representation, this sculpture is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship prevalent during that era. It serves as a reminder of Pharaoh Ramses II's significance within Egyptian society and his close association with deities like Horus. Now housed within a museum in Cairo, this vertical image captures every angle of this remarkable artwork. The absence of people allows viewers to fully immerse themselves in its grandeur while appreciating traditional Egyptian culture. As we marvel at this archaeological treasure from the nineteenth dynasty, it serves as a tangible link to our past—a window into an extraordinary civilization that thrived centuries ago on African soil.
