EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to one of the most significant battles in ancient history - the Battle of Kadesh. The illustration depicts the intense clash between two mighty empires, the Egyptian Empire led by Ramesses II and the Hittite Empire under Muwatalli II, which took place in 1274 BC. The image showcases a moment of raw aggression as warriors from both sides engage in fierce combat on horseback. The engraving beautifully captures the determination and bravery etched on their faces, highlighting their Egyptian and North African ethnicities. Amidst this chaotic scene, a majestic lion feline stands tall, symbolizing power and strength. Ramesses II, known as Pharaoh and King Royal Person during his reign, is prominently featured at the center of this historical tableau. His regal presence signifies leadership and strategic prowess that defined him throughout ancient Egypt's rich culture. The artist Nastasic skillfully employs an illustration technique called woodcut to create this antique masterpiece. Every detail meticulously engraved brings life to this ancient civilization's monumental battle while showcasing its religious significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back thousands of years into a world where war shaped destinies. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared human history filled with triumphs and conflicts that have shaped our present-day societies.
