This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient Egypt - a Cartouche for Rameses II, dating back to the 19th Dynasty (c1279-1212 BC). The cartouche, found in the Temple of Ramses in Abydos, is an elliptical symbol enclosing the name of the revered pharaoh Rameses II. Known for his extensive temple building projects during his reign (1279-1213 BC), Rameses II left an indelible mark on Egyptian history. The intricate carving and vibrant colors of this cartouche exemplify the exquisite craftsmanship of Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics.

It offers us a glimpse into the lives and beliefs of people who lived thousands of years ago. Through this piece, we can appreciate their devotion to religion, their reverence for their monarchs like Rameses II, and their dedication to leaving behind monumental structures that still stand today.
