EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Diorite head of Ptolemy VII, an ancient artifact hailing from the Egyptian civilization during the Ptolemaic Period. Dating back to the 2nd century B. C. , this sculpture exudes a sense of history and antiquity that is truly awe-inspiring. Against a striking black background, this studio shot allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this male likeness. Carved with precision and skill, it is evident that great care was taken in creating this anthropomorphic face out of diorite, a rare and precious stone. Though time has left its mark on this archaeological artefact, with visible damage present on its surface, it only adds to its allure. The headwear adorning Ptolemy VII's regal visage speaks volumes about traditional culture and offers insight into the past glory of ancient Egypt. Displayed indoors without any distractions or people around, we are able to focus solely on this magnificent piece of art. Its vertical composition commands attention while simultaneously inviting us to delve deeper into the rich history surrounding it. As we gaze upon this image captured by Universal Images Group (UIG), we cannot help but be transported back in time to Alexandria during the reign of Ptolemy VII. This print serves as a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship throughout centuries gone by.
