Egyptian Pharaoh Ramesses II & Chariot at Kadesh Mouse Pad

An ancient example of Egyptian historic wall art depicting the great Pharaoh Ramesses II charging the Hittites single-handedly in his chariot with bow at the ready. This young Pharaoh turned the tide of the Battle at Kadesh on the Orontes River (in modern day Syria), showing great courage against a superior opposing force and due in part to his perceived status as a God, won the day for his people. This is the first recorded battle in history (taking place in 1274 BC,) where extensive army formation details are known. Ramesses the Great went on to reign for an amazing 67 years, passing into the afterlife at the advanced age of 88 years. This Ancient Egyptian-themed artwork will appeal to anyone with a fascination for this period of Egyptian history and its distinctive artwork.
