This print showcases the remarkable "Portrait head of Sesostris III" from a sphinx, dating back to the Middle Kingdom around 1850 BC. Crafted out of diorite by the skilled artisans of the Egyptian 12th Dynasty, this royal masterpiece measures 21.9x33.2x32.1 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria.
