Who was Tiye?
Pharaoh Amenhotep III publicly expressed his love for his beautiful queen in
many ways, making her a celebrated and wealthy person in her own right. And he
took her counsel in matters political and military much to heart.
As a final gesture of the great regard in which he held Tiye, Amenhotep declared
that, as he had treated her in life, so should she be depicted in death…as his equal.
And so the colossal sculpture ordered for their joint funerary temple thus portrays
them, as a pair of majestic monarchs. Both proud, both noble, both serene. |
