EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable relief depicting the intense battle scene of Egyptian troops storming the Hittite city of Dapur. Created during the New Kingdom period, specifically between 1297-1185 BC, this ancient artwork is located in the Great Hypostyle Hall within the Ramesseum temple in Thebes, Egypt. The image captures a moment frozen in time as soldiers armed with chariots, bows, and arrows engage in a fierce confrontation. Each soldier appears determined and ready to fight against their adversaries. The composition highlights the chaos and intensity of battle with intricate details such as ladders being used to breach city walls. This relief serves as a testament to the military prowess and strategic brilliance of Ramesses II's reign. It symbolizes his relentless pursuit of expanding Egyptian territories and asserting dominance over rival civilizations like the Hittites. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece of history captured by Julian Page's lens, we are transported back thousands of years to witness an epic clash between two ancient powers. This print not only preserves an invaluable artifact but also allows us to appreciate the artistry and significance behind it.
