Statue of Haremhab vs. the Statue of Queen Hatshepsut

Compare the statue of Harem Habu and the statue of Queen Hatshepsut. These two statues are famous for the era of Egyptian art. They represent a position of a woman in that period and a position of a man. Traditionally, the ruler of Egypt was a man. So Mats Hatshepsut, 18th century,. Between 1473 and 1458 BC, she took over the title and function of the king and she was drawn as a royal man costume. This statement does not reflect the way she actually looks at it, it is like a political statement.

In this statue, Queen Hatshepsut is depicted as a male pharaoh wearing the costume of the Egyptian king, but he does not wear a normal fake beard. Like all the statues of the Hatshepsut temple, this statue was divided into many pieces after her nephew and the general ruler Thutmose III 's death. Unlike most other people, her facial features were systematically destroyed. Several details of the statue were originally drawn, and the mark of pigmentation still seemed to be headgear and wide collar.

After the death of Queen Hatshepsut, someone tried to erase the memory of the female pharaoh at the beginning of the reign of Tomothy III and successor rule. Many statues from Queen Hatshepsut funeral were destroyed, crushed and unsightly before being buried in the pit. Her decorations and images were also cut from the relief of the wall, including the relief of "Nativity Nativity Colonnade". His goal was not the statue of the Queen, but the statue of Ammon, but Akhenaten, who lived about a century after Hatshepsut, also jumped into an anti-traditional tendency. Therefore, the statue of Queen Hatshepsut and Amon was strangely carved in the "Christ nativity colonnade" of Queen Hatshepsut. However, attempts to completely eliminate Hatshepsut in history can be said to be a failure. Because she is remembered as one of the most successful pharaohs in ancient Egypt to this day.
