Wooden statue of Tutankhamun, Egypt, 1933-1934
Wooden statue of Tutankhamun, Egypt, 1933-1934. Statue of Tutankhamun, one of two that stood outside the sealed up entrance to his sepulchral chamber. 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 wooden statue of Tutankhamun, an ancient Egyptian pharaoh from the 18th Dynasty. Standing outside the sealed entrance to his sepulchral chamber, this statue is one of two that guarded the tomb's entrance. The discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter was a momentous event in the field of archaeology. This young pharaoh had been erased from historical records due to his association with Akhenaten, a heretical pharaoh who happened to be Tutankhamun's father-in-law. What makes this find even more extraordinary is that Tutankhamun's tomb remained untouched by grave robbers throughout history. As we gaze at this print, we are transported back in time to witness the revelation and awe-inspiring nature of this archaeological discovery. The wooden statue itself depicts Tutankhamun wearing a regal headdress and holding a staff, symbolizing his power and authority as king. Painted with vibrant colors, it reflects the artistic mastery of ancient Egypt. This image not only represents an important artifact but also serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage preserved within Egypt's royal tombs. It takes us on a journey through time, allowing us to appreciate both the craftsmanship of ancient Egyptians and their reverence for their monarchs. Through this photograph, we can glimpse into the past and marvel at how such treasures have survived centuries intact – thanks to dedicated individuals like Howard Carter and Harry Burton who brought these wonders into our modern world through their meticulous work capturing them on film.
