EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Torso of a Ptolemaic King, an exquisite piece of ancient Egyptian art dating back to 80-30 BC. Carved out of basalt, this sculpture stands at an impressive height of 93 centimeters and is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The torso bears intricate inscriptions with cartouches that belong to a late Ptolemy, possibly either Ptolemy XII or Ptolemy XV (Caesarion). These cartouches were used by ancient Egyptians to encircle the names of royalty, signifying their divine status and authority. The presence of these royal markings adds an air of regality and significance to this remarkable artwork. With its impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail, this sculpture represents the mastery achieved during the Egyptian Ptolemaic Period (332-30 BC). Despite missing its head and limbs, the torso exudes a sense of power and majesty that befits a ruler. Its stone composition further emphasizes its durability and timelessness. As we gaze upon this magnificent statue, we are transported back in time to an era when pharaohs reigned supreme over Egypt. It serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage preserved within museums like The Met. This print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind such extraordinary works of art from civilizations long past.
