EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite gold portrait mask from the mummy of Tutankhamun, discovered in the Pharaohs tomb by Howard Carter in 1922. The intricate details and craftsmanship of this ancient artifact are truly awe-inspiring. The mask, made entirely of gold, depicts the young pharaoh with striking features and an air of regality. It is a testament to the advanced skills and artistry of ancient Egyptian civilization. Howard Carter's monumental discovery in 1922 brought Tutankhamun's tomb into the spotlight, unraveling mysteries about Egypt's rich history. This photograph captures a momentous piece of that historical puzzle. The Illustrated London News featured this illustration as part of their Silver Jubilee Record Number commemorating King George V and Queen Mary in 1935. Its inclusion highlights not only its significance within British culture but also its enduring appeal across Europe. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when kings ruled over vast empires and archaeologists unearthed treasures lost to time. It serves as a reminder of our shared human heritage and the importance of preserving these artifacts for future generations. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every detail in this photo print, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and historical value encapsulated within this golden mask from Tutankhamun's mummy.
