EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning ancient Egyptian print showcases the divine union of God Horus and Goddess Hathor at the Temple of Horus in Edfu, Egypt. The Temple, dedicated to the falcon-headed god Horus, is a marvel of Ptolemaic architecture and artistry, constructed during the Greco-Roman period. The main entrance of the temple is adorned with intricate hieroglyphic and relief carvings, including this exquisite depiction of Horus and Hathor. Horus, the god of the sky, the sun, and the protector of Egypt, is shown with his iconic falcon head and the double crown, symbolizing his role as both the god of Upper and Lower Egypt. Hathor, the goddess of love, music, dance, and fertility, is depicted with her characteristic crown of cow horns and the solar disc between them, known as the Sehemty or the 'Crown of Re'. The double crown, or Pschent, worn by both deities represents the unification of the two lands of Egypt under one ruler. This symbolic union of Horus and Hathor is a testament to the deep-rooted mythological and historical significance of the Temple of Horus in Edfu. The sandstone relief, with its intricate details and perspectives, offers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of ancient Egypt and the complex mythology that shaped its civilization.
