EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sculpture of the god Horus in the form of a falcon, found at the Temple of Horus in Edfu, Egypt. Dating back to the Ptolemaic Period between 251 BC and 246 BC, this ancient artwork is an exquisite representation of Egyptian religious beliefs and architectural prowess. Carved from stone with meticulous attention to detail, this colorful statue stands as a testament to the rich heritage and deep-rooted spirituality of ancient Egypt. The falcon-headed figure symbolizes Horus, one of the most significant deities in Egyptian mythology associated with protection and kingship. The Temple of Horus itself is an awe-inspiring archaeological site located near Aswan. Its grandeur reflects both its historical significance and architectural brilliance. This sacred place served as a center for worship where devotees would gather to pay homage to their gods. As we gaze upon this image captured by CM Dixon, we are transported back in time to witness not only exceptional craftsmanship but also the profound devotion that characterized ancient Egyptian culture. Through art like this, we gain insight into their beliefs and rituals that shaped their lives thousands of years ago.
