EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty and enigmatic allure of the Sphinx, a majestic monument dating back to the reign of King Chephren in ancient Egypt. The image captures the head of a human seamlessly melded with the body of a lion, symbolizing power and wisdom. Located at Giza (El Gizeh) near Cairo, Egypt, this iconic sculpture has stood as a testament to human ingenuity for centuries. Its origins can be traced back to around 2613-2498 BC during the Egyptian 4th Dynasty. The Sphinx's presence is further enhanced by its proximity to the pyramids, creating an awe-inspiring sight that continues to captivate visitors from all corners of the globe. The photograph also features another significant artifact known as the dream stele of Tuthmosis IV from the New Kingdom period (1419-1386 BC). This stela records a divine prediction that if Tuthmosis cleared away sand covering the Sphinx, he would ascend to become king. This historical account adds an intriguing layer of mystique surrounding both Tuthmosis IV and this remarkable masterpiece. Preserved through time and now available as part of Bridgeman Images' collection, this print allows viewers to appreciate not only its artistic grandeur but also glimpse into ancient Egyptian beliefs and history. With its intricate details and profound symbolism, it serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with our past and our quest for understanding our place within it.
