Description
This modern replica captures the distinctive features of Pharaoh Akhenaten, a ruler of Ancient Egypt's 18th dynasty, known for his unconventional representation in art. The relief measures 14x11x2.5 cm or about 5.51x4.33x0.98 inches and is made from a durable composition stone with a light ochre coloration and a realistic patina that echoes the textures of the original limestone carvings. This piece reflects the early artistic experiments of Akhenaten's reign, showcasing the exaggerated features such as the prominent lips, elongated neck, and pointed chin that characterized Amarna art. This period marked a significant departure from the idealized portraiture of previous Egyptian art, embracing a more individualistic and expressive style. This replica serves as a memorable introduction to the Amarna period's unique aesthetic and the pharaoh's lasting legacy. It's an evocative piece for those familiar with, or new to, the enigmas of this extraordinary epoch in Egyptian history.
