Summary

[edit]
Description A weathered colossus, Amenhotep III gazes out from granite eternity. Once a titan guarding Luxor, now a muse in London's halls. Pharaoh's crown, the pschent, whispers of power, his sculpted lips hinting at whispers of gods. Time has ravaged his form, yet serenity endures. A fragment, an echo of golden ages, Amenhotep III beckons us back to pharaohs and prayers, a portal to a lost world etched in stone.
