Louvre - Colossal Statue of Ramesses II

This statue represents a figure in traditional pharaonic pose: seated on a cubic throne, his hands flat on his thighs, wearing a false beard and a headdress with a cobra (broken).

 

The names and titles of Ramesses II are inscribed on the belt buckle, and on the back and sides of the throne.
