Relief of Thutmose III

Relief of Thutmose III. Dimensions: H. 32 cm (12 5/8 in.); W. 32 cm (12 5/8 in.); D. 6.5 cm (2 9/16 in.). Dynasty: Dynasty 18. Reign: reign of Thutmose III. Date: ca. 1458-1425 B.C..
This fine relief of Thutmose III probably came from his valley temple. He also constructed a mortuary temple against the cliffs of Deir el-Bahri at Thebes adjacent to that of Hatshepsut, with whom he shared the kingship for part of his reign. It shows the king wearing the khat headcloth with a very menacing coiled uraeus on his brow.
The fragment was found reused in a Ramesside temple on the same site as Thutmose's valley temple. It was excavated in 1906 by Lord Carnarvon and came to the Museum after his death along with many other items in his collection.

Relief of Thutmose III
Descripción:
Traducción automática: Relieve de Tutmosis III. Dimensiones: H. 32 cm (12 5/8 pulg.); ancho 32 cm (12 5/8 pulg.); D. 6,5 cm (2 9/16 pulg.). Dinastía: Dinastía 18. Reinado: reinado de Tutmosis III. Fecha: ca. 1458-1425 a.C. Este magnífico relieve de Tutmosis III probablemente procede de su templo del valle. También construyó un templo mortuorio frente a los acantilados de Deir el-Bahri en Tebas, adyacente al de Hatshepsut, con quien compartió la realeza durante parte de su reinado. Muestra al rey vistiendo el tocado de khat con un ureus enrollado muy amenazador en la frente. El fragmento fue encontrado reutilizado en un templo de Ramesside en el mismo sitio que el templo del valle de Tutmosis. Fue excavado en 1906 por Lord Carnarvon y llegó al Museo después de su muerte junto con muchos otros elementos de su colección.
