EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient Egyptian civilization. Here, we are presented with a remarkable sight - the mummy of Pharaoh Ramses II from Thebes. This powerful ruler belonged to the New Kingdom and reigned during Dynasty XIX, between 1290 and 1224 b. C. The image showcases the preserved remains of Ramses II, wrapped in intricate robes that reflect the opulence and grandeur of Egyptian culture. Standing tall and vertical, this mummy serves as a poignant reminder of the once-mighty pharaoh's existence. Captured within the walls of Cairo's Egyptian Museum, this photograph allows us an up-close glimpse into traditional ceremonies surrounding death and burial practices in ancient Egypt. It is awe-inspiring to witness such an important historical artifact firsthand. As we observe only one man depicted here, it becomes evident that this image represents not just any ordinary person but rather one who held immense power and influence over his people. Ramses II was renowned for his military conquests as well as his architectural achievements throughout Egypt. Through this photograph, Universal Images Group (UIG) provides us with a window into a bygone era - a time when pharaohs ruled supreme and their legacy continues to captivate our imaginations even today. Let us marvel at this testament to human history while honoring the rich cultural heritage left behind by ancient civilizations like Egypt's 19th dynasty.
