EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Kingdom of Meneptah's remarkable cube-shaped statue of Ahantinefer, carved from limestone and originating from Herakleopolis in ancient Egypt. Standing at an impressive height of 54 cm, this full-length statue depicts a male figure sitting with his knees hugged closely to his chest. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this archeological artifact. The hieroglyphs adorning the surface tell stories of a bygone era, offering us a glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient Egyptian civilization during the 19th Dynasty. Ahantinefer's headdress adds an air of regality to his barefooted form, symbolizing his status within society. As we gaze upon this studio shot, we cannot help but be transported back in time, marveling at the human representation skillfully captured by the artist.
