Queen Nefertari with the Headdress of Hathor - 2 millieme
This specimen captures the profound Pharaonic legacy of Egypt, centering on the profile of Queen Nefertari, the Great Royal Wife of Ramses II. She is depicted wearing the divine headdress associated with the goddess Hathor—composed of the sun disk and cow horns—which symbolizes her elevated status and connection to the divine feminine protector of the afterlife and fertility. The inclusion of the royal cartouche adjacent to her profile carries a message of regal authority and historical continuity, reflecting the early 20th-century institutional effort to anchor modern Egyptian identity in its prestigious ancient past. Historically, this theme illustrates the state's move toward "Pharaonism," using the postal service to celebrate the sophisticated artistic and political achievements of the New Kingdom as a foundational pillar of the nation’s sovereign heritage.
