EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable relief from the Great Hypostyle Hall in the Ramesseum, Thebes, Egypt. The artwork depicts the lioness-headed goddess Mut presenting Ramesses II to an enthroned Amun, who graciously offers him an ankh - the key of life. In this ancient Egyptian masterpiece created during the 19th Dynasty (c. 1292-1187 BC), we witness a significant moment where Ramesses II is introduced to Amun, one of Egypt's most revered deities. As Mut stands proudly beside them, her lioness form symbolizing power and protection, she acts as both mother and consort to Ramesses II. The scene captures the divine recognition bestowed upon Ramesses II by Amun Ra himself - a testament to his status as pharaoh and his close relationship with the gods. It highlights not only his importance but also emphasizes the significance of family ties within Egyptian mythology. The intricate bas-relief work beautifully portrays each figure with meticulous detail and precision, showcasing their regal attire and serene expressions. This photograph allows us to appreciate both its artistic mastery and historical significance. As we gaze at this image captured by Julian Page, we are transported back in time to witness this sacred moment between mortals and gods; a reminder of Egypt's rich cultural heritage that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
