EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Jon Hicks, we are transported to the awe-inspiring Abu Simbel Temple of Ramses II in the Nile Valley of Egypt. The temple stands as a testament to ancient African civilization and its rich historical significance. Dedicated to the gods Haramakis Amon Ra and Ptah, it exudes an air of mystery and grandeur. The focus of this particular image is on the intricate stone colossi that guard the entrance to the temple. These colossal statues, carved with meticulous detail, depict Ramses II himself, seated majestically on his throne. Their imposing presence commands respect and admiration from all who lay eyes upon them. Every chiseled line on these stone giants tells a story of power, devotion, and divine worship. The craftsmanship is nothing short of extraordinary; each feature meticulously sculpted to perfection. As we gaze at their serene expressions and towering stature against a backdrop of golden sandstone walls, we can't help but feel humbled by their sheer magnitude. This photograph not only captures the architectural brilliance but also serves as a window into an era long gone yet forever preserved in these ancient ruins. It invites us to delve into Africa's remarkable archaeological heritage while igniting our curiosity about its Middle Eastern connections. Jon Hicks has masterfully captured both the magnificence and intricacy within this single frame – allowing us to appreciate every minute detail etched onto these timeless stones.
