The hunting of the wild bull, carved on a tempkle wall at Medinet Habu, Thebes, Egypt, 1905. Artist: Underwood & Underwood
The hunting of the wild bull, carved on a tempkle wall at Medinet Habu, Thebes, Egypt, 1905. This is one of the most spirited scenes that an Egyptian sculptor ever wrought. The king, with reigns slackened and hanging in a distinct curve from his waist, urges on his plumed horses as they dash after the great hull, plunging through the reeds in the vain endeavour to escape to the river. Poising his long lance ready for the fatal thrust, the eager Pharaoh leans far over the front of his chariot; as he strains to reach the fleeing prey, he has placed one foot out upon the chariot-pole. Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted

The Hunting of the Wild Bull
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures a remarkable scene carved on a temple wall at Medinet Habu, Thebes, Egypt in 1905. Created by Underwood & Underwood, this black and white stereoscopic card showcases one of the most spirited scenes ever crafted by an Egyptian sculptor. In this ancient depiction, we witness the intense pursuit of a wild bull by none other than the Pharaoh himself. With his reins hanging loosely from his waist and plumed horses galloping fiercely behind him, the king urges them forward as they chase after their prey. The Pharaoh leans far over the front of his chariot with poised lance ready to strike down the fleeing bull. His determination is evident as he even extends one foot out onto the chariot-pole for balance. The attention to detail in this carving is truly impressive; every muscle and movement captured with precision. It offers us a glimpse into ancient Egyptian hunting practices and highlights their reverence for nature's power. This photograph belongs to a series called "Egypt Through the Stereoscope" accompanied by text written by James H Breasted. It not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also provides valuable insights into Egypt's rich history and culture. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand an exhilarating moment frozen in stone – forever preserving both artistry and adventure within its monochrome frame.
