EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Michael Melford transports us to the ancient world of Egypt, where the grandeur and magnificence of Ramses II's Colossus at the entrance and central corridor of Luxor temple come to life. The image captures a mesmerizing scene as dusk settles over the Luxor temple complex, illuminating this remarkable architectural masterpiece. Standing tall against the backdrop of a vibrant sky, the colossal statue of Ramses II commands attention with its imposing presence. Its seated position exudes power and authority, while intricate hieroglyphics adorning its surface tell stories from a distant past. The bas-relief sculpture skillfully carved into every detail showcases the exceptional craftsmanship that defined Egyptian art. The photograph offers a low angle view that emphasizes both the immense size and artistic intricacy of this ancient wonder. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time, marveling at how such an awe-inspiring structure was constructed thousands of years ago. The Luxor temple itself is an international landmark and one of Egypt's most iconic travel destinations. It serves as a testament to the rich religious heritage that once thrived in Thebes (now known as Luxor). This World Heritage Site stands not only as a physical representation of ancient Egyptian architecture but also as a symbol deeply rooted in their religion and culture. Melford's color image beautifully captures all these elements - from the warm hues painting the sky to every minute detail etched on Ramses II's colossus. Through his lens, he invites us to appreciate African antiquities and artifacts while igniting our curiosity about civilizations long gone but forever immortalized through their extraordinary works like this stunning sculpture at Luxor temple.
