Ramses II sculpture
Pharaoh of Egypt
Ramses II called "The Great",
earned that accolade by doing
things on a grand scale with
enormous gusto. In an opulent
67-year reign he waged an
extravagant war against a
coalition of Asian states led by
the Hittites, sired more than 100
children, and erected Egypt's
biggest and showiest buildings.
Among his monuments were
two huge temples cut into the
cliffs at Abu Simbel. He entered
into diplomatic negotiations with
Hittites, with whom he signed
one of the first recorded treaties
in history. He campaigned in
Syria and Palestine and raided
into the south. Ramses was
truly a king of kings.
Item No. 262
Weight 1.5 Lb
Dimensions W: 3" H: 10.5" D:
4.25"
Made of cast stone, hand
finished with antique finished.
$95.00
