EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print depicts the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari in Egypt, built during the 18th Dynasty of the New Kingdom around 1490 BC. The temple, dedicated to the god Amun-Ra and the goddess Hatshepsut herself, is a masterpiece of ancient Egyptian architecture and art. The relief on the temple's exterior walls tells the story of Pharaoh Hatshepsut's expedition to the Land of Punt, a distant and exotic land located in the eastern Mediterranean or the Red Sea. The relief shows Hatshepsut and her retinue presenting offerings to the Puntites, including a cow, trees, and other goods. The animals and trees are depicted in great detail, showcasing the Egyptians' fascination with the natural wonders of the world beyond their borders. The temple's distinctive design features a series of terraces and a grand stairway leading up to the temple's entrance. The temple's walls are adorned with polychrome reliefs, which have survived remarkably well despite the passage of time. The use of polychromy, or the application of multiple colors to the relief, adds depth and texture to the already impressive designs. The Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari is a testament to the artistic and architectural achievements of ancient Egypt during the New Kingdom period. It continues to captivate scholars and visitors alike, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this ancient civilization.
