Hatshepsut: Symbol of Female Power in Ancient Egypt
Daughter of Thutmose I, royal wife of Thutmose II, and later regent of Thutmose III, Hatshepsut broke the boundaries of her time by becoming a pharaoh herself. Her reign, between 1479 and 1458 BCE, marked Egypt with its stability, economic prosperity, and cultural influence. This poster illustrates her majestic aura, her determination, and the unique visual strategy she adopted: that of representing herself as a man, with the traditional attributes of Egyptian kings, such as the Nemes headdress and the false beard. She thus affirmed her legitimacy and consolidated her power in a society where female sovereigns were the exception.
A period of prosperity, innovation and commercial expansion
Hatshepsut's reign is known for her ambitious policy of economic expansion. She organized trade expeditions to the Land of Punt, a mythical land rich in frankincense, ebony, gold, myrrh, and exotic products. These voyages, depicted in the bas-reliefs of her mortuary temple, testify to a reign focused on innovation, diplomacy, and development.
She also oversaw numerous architectural projects, including the famous temple of Deir el-Bahari, a masterpiece of harmony and monumentality located opposite the Valley of the Kings. This poster subtly evokes these great achievements through a graphic composition inspired by the visual codes of Egyptian art.
