EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian art - the Ring: Usermaatre-Setepenre (Ramesses II). Dating back to the 13th century BCE, during the New Kingdom period and reign of Ramesses II, this ring is an exquisite example of craftsmanship from Dynasty 19. The ring's design features intricate details that reflect the rich heritage and culture of ancient Egypt. Made from faience, a type of glazed ceramic, it boasts a beautiful blue color that adds to its allure. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every delicate curve and line on this extraordinary artifact. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's African Arts gallery, this ring serves as a testament to Africa's artistic legacy. It represents not only the mastery of jewelry-making in ancient Egypt but also offers insights into their beliefs and traditions. While its creator remains unknown, this ring carries with it centuries worth of history and symbolism. Its presence evokes thoughts about Pharaoh Ramesses II himself - known as "Ozymandias" or "Ramses the Great". As we gaze upon this timeless treasure, we are transported back in time to an era when kings ruled over vast empires. Through preserving artifacts like this one, we gain valuable glimpses into civilizations long gone but never forgotten. This photograph captures not just an object but also our collective fascination with human ingenuity throughout history.
