EDITORS COMMENTS
This Figure of Horus as a Falcon, dated back to 711 B.C., is a stunning testament to the rich artistic heritage of Ancient Egypt. The bronze sculpture, discovered in Egypt during the Late Period or the Ptolemaic Dynasty, depicts the god Horus in the form of a falcon, a symbol of kingship and divine protection. Horus, the ancient Egyptian god of the sky, the sun, and the falcon, was one of the most important deities in Egyptian mythology. He was often depicted as a falcon or a man with the head of a falcon, reflecting his association with the bird of prey. This exquisite sculpture, with its intricately detailed feathers and piercing gaze, showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of the ancient Egyptian artists. The golden wings and beak add an extra layer of grandeur to the figure, emphasizing Horus's divine nature. The Figure of Horus as a Falcon was likely created during the Hellenistic period, a time when Greek influences began to shape Egyptian art. This fusion of Egyptian and Greek artistic styles is evident in the sculpture's realistic representation of the falcon's form and the use of Greek techniques in casting the bronze. Now housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), this masterpiece continues to captivate visitors with its intricate details and historical significance. The Figure of Horus as a Falcon is a reminder of the enduring legacy of ancient Egyptian art and the deep connection between the Egyptian people and their gods.
