EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of ancient Egyptian religion and history, showcasing the revered Moon-god Khonsu in his form as Khonsu-in-Thebes, also known as Nefer-Hotep. With a falcon's head and a crown embodying the moon, Khonsu was worshipped in various forms throughout Egypt.
The intricate details of this image highlight the significance of Khonsu in Egyptian mythology, as he symbolized not only the moon but also aspects of time, healing, and protection. The god's presence is palpable in his regal stance and powerful aura, reminding viewers of the deep spiritual beliefs that guided ancient Egyptian society.
As one gazes upon this print, they are transported back in time to Thebes, where Khonsu was venerated with great reverence by priests and commoners alike. His role as a divine healer and protector made him a beloved figure in Egyptian religious practices.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured the beauty and mystique of Khonsu-in-Thebes in this remarkable photograph. It serves as a reminder of the rich tapestry of beliefs that shaped ancient Egypt and continues to fascinate scholars and enthusiasts today.
