EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning hieroglyphic relief from the Temple of Kom Ombo in Egypt. The intricate carvings depict the rich history and religious beliefs of ancient Egyptian civilization. Dating back to the 20th century, this artwork is a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable culture. The Temple of Kom Ombo is actually composed of two temples dedicated to Sobek, the crocodile god, and Haroeris (Horus), the falcon-headed god. Originally initiated by Ptolemy VI Philometer around 191-145 BC, subsequent rulers like Ptolemy XIII made significant additions to these sacred structures. The bas-relief sculpture beautifully captures various elements such as animals, birds, deities, and religious symbols that were integral parts of ancient Egyptian worship. Hieroglyphics—Egyptian writing system—are prominently featured throughout this artwork, providing valuable insights into their language and belief systems. This photograph not only highlights the artistic brilliance but also serves as an archaeological treasure trove for researchers studying ancient Egypt. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era when religion played a central role in society and art served as a medium for expressing devotion. Thanks to AccuSoft Inc. , we can now appreciate this extraordinary piece with its intricate details preserved through time. This print allows us to marvel at the skillful craftsmanship that has stood strong for centuries while reminding us of Egypt's rich cultural heritage.
