dc.description | Close view of Amenhotep III, depicting viewer's left side of the upper torso and head; "Royal dyads often depict the king in company with a divinity. The theme was especially popular under the Ramesside kings. In the New Kingdom seated groups often embrace while standing figures hold hands." This large statue was found in a shaft at the bottom of a canal in 1967. Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.groveart.com/ (accessed 1/18/2008) | en_US |
