Painted clothes chest, which lies at the foot of Tutankhamens statue, Egypt, 1933-1934
Painted clothes chest, which lies at the foot of Tutankhamens statue, Egypt, 1933-1934. The discovery of Tutankhamuns tomb in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter (1874-1939) was one of the most astounding discoveries in archaeology. Tutankhamun was a previously unknown pharaoh whose name had been eradicated from historical records by one of his successors because of his association with the heretical pharaoh Akhenaten, who was Tutankhamuns father-in-law. Consequently his tomb, uniquely, had remained undisturbed by grave robbers. A print from Wonders of the Past, Volume I, 1933-1934

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a painted clothes chest, resting at the foot of Tutankhamen's majestic statue in Egypt. The year was 1933-1934, when British archaeologist Howard Carter made one of the most astonishing discoveries in history - the tomb of Tutankhamun. This young pharaoh had been erased from historical records by his successors due to his association with Akhenaten, a heretical ruler. As a result, Tutankhamun's burial chamber remained untouched by grave robbers for centuries. The image captures the essence of this remarkable find, revealing an intricately painted wooden chest filled with precious burial goods. The vibrant colors and intricate designs on the chest reflect the artistic mastery of ancient Egyptian craftsmen. It is a testament to their skill and dedication to creating objects fit for royalty. Located in the Valley of the Kings near Luxor, this mausoleum served as Tutankhamun's final resting place over 3,000 years ago. The discovery shed light on a forgotten chapter in Egyptian history and provided invaluable insights into their culture and beliefs. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the awe-inspiring treasures that lay hidden within Tutankhamun's tomb. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with ancient civilizations and their ability to leave behind lasting legacies that continue to captivate us today.
