Blue Astronomical Ceiling,Temple of Hathor Dendera, Egypt The vibrant astronomical ceiling of the Hypostyle Hall, Temple of Hathor Dendera, Egypt.  The ceiling is a symbolic representation of the heavens, featuring the waxing and waning of the moon as it travels across the heavens in the barque of Re.  Jackals and birds accompany Re’s barque.  This scene is from the east side of the temple and features snakes and various gods including, the falcon god Horus, the ibis headed god Thoth, Hathor and Sekhmet (also Sachmet, Sakmet, Sakhet, Sekmet, Sakhmet, Sekhet, Sachmis), the lion goddess of war and destruction.  Dedicated to Hathor, goddess of love, beauty, music and motherhood, the main temple dates from the Graeco-Roman era although a temple stood on the site during the Old Kingdom. Dendera Stock Photo

Frequently asked questions


What's a royalty-free license?
Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that content. It's a win-win, and it's why everything on iStock is only available royalty-free — including all Dendera images and footage.
What kinds of royalty-free files are available on iStock?
Royalty-free licenses are the best option for anyone who needs to use stock images commercially, which is why every file on iStock — whether it’s a photo, illustration or video clip — is only available royalty-free.
How can you use royalty-free images and video clips?
From social media ads to billboards, PowerPoint presentations to feature films, you're free to modify, resize and customize every asset on iStock — including all Dendera images and footage — to fit your projects. With the exception of "Editorial use only" photos (which can only be used in editorial projects and can't be modified), the possibilities are limitless.
