EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the young prince, likely a member of the royal family during the 19th Dynasty of Egypt's New Kingdom (approximately 13th century BC), standing in awe before the colossal statues of Pharaoh Ramses II at the Temple of Ramses II in Abu Simbel. The temple, built between 1290 and 1224 BC, is a breathtaking testament to the grandeur and power of the Egyptian civilization during this period. The prince's posture exudes reverence and respect as he gazes up at the colossal figure of Ramses II, whose statue is adorned with the symbol of the Ankh, representing the key to eternal life. The crux ansata, or the ancient Egyptian symbol of the goddess Hathor, is also visible in the pharaoh's hands, emphasizing his divine connection and power. The intricately carved details of the statue and the temple's architecture transport us back to an age of ancient civilization, where the Nile River played a central role in the daily lives of the people, and the pharaoh was considered a god-king. This image offers a glimpse into the family dynamics and the reverence for the ruler during this period, making it an invaluable piece of Egyptian art and history.
