EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Relief of Horus, a falcon-headed god, found within the Temple of Horus in Edfu, Egypt. Created during the Ptolemaic Period between 251 BC and 246 BC, this exquisite piece of art depicts Horus wearing the Double Crown of Upper and Lower Egypt while holding both the Sceptre and Ankh. Standing proudly between two powerful symbols - the Vulture representing Upper Egypt with its White Crown above a delicate lotus plant, and the hawk symbolizing Lower Egypt perched upon papyrus reeds - Horus embodies divine power. The intricate stone carving beautifully captures every detail of this iconic deity. The vibrant colors used to adorn him bring life to his majestic presence against a backdrop of nature's elements. This relief not only serves as an architectural feature but also represents deep religious significance for worshippers who frequented this sacred temple. As we marvel at this archaeological treasure through CM Dixon's lens, we are transported back in time to ancient Africa. The image encapsulates not just artistic mastery but also offers us glimpses into Egyptian culture, mythology, and spirituality. It is a testament to human creativity and devotion that has stood strong for centuries in Aswan's historic city
