EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Egyptian Obelisk of Tuthmosis II, dating back to the 15th century BC. Originally located in Karnak, Egypt, this ancient artifact now resides in Istanbul. Tuthmosis II, the fourth Pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt, left a lasting legacy through his construction of minor monuments and involvement in two campaigns. The obelisk itself stands tall and proud against a backdrop of vibrant colors that bring out its intricate hieroglyphics. Its weathered surface tells tales from an era long gone by, as it silently witnesses the passage of time. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line and curve carved into its stone holds significance within ancient Egyptian culture. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to Luxor's historic cityscape where towering obelisks like these once adorned temples dedicated to deities worshipped by pharaohs and commoners alike. It serves as a reminder of Egypt's rich heritage and architectural prowess. Insects scurry around at its base while birds perch on top, creating a harmonious blend between nature and human craftsmanship. This image captures not only an extraordinary piece of history but also encapsulates concepts such as power, spirituality, and artistic expression that were fundamental aspects of ancient Egyptian society. Photographer CM Dixon skillfully immortalizes this relic for us all to admire—a testament to our fascination with civilizations past—and invites us to delve deeper into the enigmatic world that was Ancient Egypt
