EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Obelisk of Ramesses II, standing tall in the sacred Temple dedicated to Amun Mut and Khons in Luxor, Egypt. Dating back to the 13th century BC during Ramesses II's reign, this ancient structure is a testament to the rich religious and architectural heritage of Egypt. The obelisk, crafted from stone with intricate hieroglyphic inscriptions, stands as a symbol of worship and devotion. Bathed in warm sunlight, it radiates an aura of spirituality that captivates all who behold it. The vibrant colors depicted in this photograph bring life to the ancient artwork carved into its surface. As one gazes upon this remarkable sight, they are transported back in time to an era when pharaohs ruled over a land deeply rooted in religion and tradition. The temple complex surrounding the obelisk serves as a sanctuary for worshippers seeking solace and connection with their gods. Through careful preservation and archaeological efforts, we can now appreciate not only the artistic beauty but also gain insights into Egyptian culture and beliefs. This image invites us to explore the fascinating world of ancient Egypt - its people, deities, royal lineage, astronomy intertwined with religion - all encapsulated within this single monumental structure. With every glance at this print by CM Dixon capturing Ramses II's legacy at its finest moment under clear skies blessed by Amon Ra himself; we are reminded of our shared human history and marvel at how these timeless wonders continue to inspire
