Summary edit

Description

Statue of Amenemhat III, created in Egypt about 1859 to 1814 BC. Found at Karnak, Thebes.

The pharaoh is depicted in a devotional pose, kneeling on both knees with his hands laid flat and palm-down on his knees.

Egyptian pharaohnic art depicts pharaohs in stiff, immobile poses. This indicates serenity, and shows how divine the pharaoh is.
