Abstract

"Pharaoh Sesostris III is one of the most emblematic kings of ancient Egypt. His reign (circa 1872-1854 BC. BC) during the height of the Middle Kingdom, marks a turning point in the history of ancient Egypt. Sesostris was an Initiator of major political and administrative reforms. During his rule he built a network of fortresses, and delineated the boundaries of the Egyptian kingdom with Nubia (modern Sudan); He also established extensive trade and diplomatic relations with his eastern neighbors (Cyprus, Lebanon, Turkey, Syria, Israel, Palestine). Under Sesostris the Egyptian state was reinvented in depth. This change is embodied in the sculptor’s art: the enigmatic portraits of this Pharaoh that have reached us break with traditional canons and exhibit severe features, symbols of wisdom, as well as ideal traits. Other artistic productions illustrate a renewed prosperity and a vitality as a result of cultural exchanges with neighboring kingdoms."--Publisher’s description.
