Seated limestone statue of Ramses II from Herakleopolis (Ihnasya el-Medina), Egypt (Dynasty 19, ca. 1250 BCE). Featured in the Upper Egyptian Gallery at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, this statue of Ramses II is a fine example of the recarving of royal sculpture. The disproportionately small head indicates the reworking of an earlier piece, probably dating to the 13th Dynasty. Royal sculptors would have resculpted the head in the official image of Ramses II. Photo: Dr. David Silverman.The Upper Egyptian Gallery offers an unique setting for any celebration where Pharoahs of Egypt and Mummies will welcome you.
