EDITORS COMMENTS
This color print showcases the awe-inspiring Statue of Rameses II at Abu Simbel, Egypt, taken between 1933 and 1934. The photograph is sourced from the renowned publication "Wonders of the Past" specifically volume II from that era. Standing tall against a backdrop of ancient ruins, this majestic statue pays homage to one of Egypt's most revered monarchs. Rameses II, also known as Ramses the Great or Ramesses II, ruled over Egypt during the thirteenth century BC. This regal depiction captures his commanding presence and royal stature with remarkable detail and vibrancy. The intricate carvings on his stone form reflect the artistic prowess and cultural significance prevalent in Egyptian civilization. Abu Simbel serves as an iconic location for this monumental tribute to Pharaoh Rameses II. Situated on the banks of Lake Nasser in southern Egypt, these temples were carved into solid rock cliffs under Rameses' reign. The preservation efforts undertaken to relocate them during modern times further emphasize their historical importance. The color print itself is a testament to both technological advancements in photography during the early twentieth century and its enduring appeal today. As part of The Print Collector's collection, it stands as a visual representation of our shared heritage and fascination with ancient civilizations.
