Ancient Egypt

RAMOSE

Ramose: translation

Vizier reigns of Amenophis III and Akhenaten, c.1417-1375 BC.
Ramose was Governor of Thebes and Vizier under *Amenophis III and also served his son *Akhenaten (Amenophis IV) during the early years of his reign when Thebes was still the capital. Thus, he lived through the period of transition when Amenophis IV was introducing his revolutionary worship of the sun-disc, the Aten. Ramose's tomb is situated at Sheikh Abd el Qurna, Thebes, and it was excavated and restored by Mond; it is of great interest both historically and artistically because it is one of the few monuments that represent this transitionary period before Amenophis IV (*Akhenaten) left Thebes to found his new city of Akhetaten (Tell el Amarna).
The wall-scenes in the tomb vividly contrast traditional art and the new art forms introduced under *Akhenaten; most of the reliefs depict Amenophis IV in the conventional style but there is a dramatic change in the scene that shows the king and his queen, *Nefertiti, standing on a balcony, beneath the sun-disc and its descending rays, presenting Ramose with gold collars.This scene is typical of the so-called Amarna art, both in terms of the subject matter, which is parallelled in scenes at Amarna, and in the representation of the figures; these appear in the near caricature style of Amarna art which distorts the human figure.
The tomb was unfinished and the fate of Ramose (along with other Theban officials who held positions of authority before the Court moved to Amarna) is unknown.
