EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the awe-inspiring entrance to the Temple of Nefertari, dedicated to the goddess Hathor, in Abu Simbel, Egypt. Dated between 1271 and 1256 BC, this temple is a remarkable example of ancient Egyptian architecture from the New Kingdom period. The vertical, up right image showcases the grandeur of the temple's exterior, with the entrance framed by two massive colossi of Nefertari. Each colossus stands over seven meters tall and is intricately carved with the queen's features and the insignia of Hathor, the goddess of love, music, and fertility. The temple's exterior is bathed in natural light, highlighting the vibrant colors and intricate details of the sandstone carvings. The temple's dedication to Hathor reflects the deep reverence ancient Egyptians held for the goddess, and the temple remains an enduring symbol of their rich cultural heritage.
