EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed close-up of the Seated statue of Sesostris I, an ancient masterpiece originally from the Mortuary Temple of Sesostris I at al-Lisht. Created during the Egyptian 12th Dynasty, which spanned from 1991 to 1786 BC, this limestone sculpture is now housed in the prestigious Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. The statue depicts a powerful and regal figure seated on a throne, believed to be that of Pharaoh Sesostris I himself. The intricate details are awe-inspiring, with particular attention given to his facial features and royal attire. His majestic beard and goatee are meticulously carved, while his headdress exudes authority and grandeur. As one of ten life-sized statues discovered in the pyramid, this artwork offers us a glimpse into ancient Egyptian artistry and reverence for their kings. The lifelike portrayal captures both the physical likeness and spiritual essence of Pharaoh Sesostris I. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured every nuance of this remarkable piece through their expert photography skills. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate the beauty and historical significance encapsulated within this extraordinary work.
