Description
Tutankhamun Exhibition on tour all over the Globe .Forbidden to photograph the exhibition with flash and tripod but I managed to get some memorable pictures anyway ,captured by me in Stockholm 2017......Sarcophagus in Gold ...Hieroglyphs a stylized picture of an object representing a word, syllable, or sound, as found in ancient Egyptian and other writing systems.
In much of the Egyptian hieroglyphs , the Pharaoh was often depicted as almost larger than life, with great power and much of Egyptian art is a celebration of his accomplishments.......In 1922, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon discovered Tutankhamun’s near-intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings. The king’s mummified body still lay, surrounded by precious grave goods, in his golden coffin. Today, Tutankhamun is ancient Egypt’s most famous pharaoh.
