EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Egyptian art - the Ring: Ramesses (II), Beloved of Amun. Created during the New Kingdom, Dynasty 19, and believed to have been worn by the great pharaoh Ramesses II himself, this ring is an exquisite example of craftsmanship from around 1279-1213 BCE. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this ceramic artifact. Made from faience, a type of glazed pottery commonly used in ancient Egypt, it features a stunning green color that adds to its allure. The ring's design is adorned with symbols and hieroglyphics associated with Amun, one of Egypt's most revered deities. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's African Art Centre gallery, this heritage artwork offers a glimpse into Africa's rich history and cultural legacy. Its significance extends beyond mere aesthetics; it represents the artistic achievements and religious beliefs prevalent during that era in Middle Eastern civilization. While its creator remains unknown today, their skillful craftsmanship has stood the test of time. This photograph serves as a testament to our fascination with ancient civilizations and their ability to create enduring works of art.
