EDITORS COMMENTS
Front Cover: A Statue of King Tutankhamun Guarding His Sepulchre for 3,000 Years (1923) The front cover of the Illustrated London News for the week of November 17, 1923, showcases a life-size statue of Pharaoh Tutankhamun standing sentinel at the entrance to his tomb. This stunning image captures the awe-inspiring discovery of the young Pharaoh's burial site, which had remained sealed for over 3,000 years. The statue, one of a pair flanking the sealed door, was left untouched until Lord Carnarvon, an English archaeologist, arrived to uncover the treasures within. The tomb, located in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, was the first royal tomb to be discovered virtually intact, filled with an abundance of relics and treasures that had miraculously survived the test of time. The discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, which took place in 1922, marked a significant turning point in the field of archaeology. The world was captivated by the news of the find, and this image of the statue of the young Pharaoh, with his serene expression and regal bearing, became a symbol of the mystery and allure of ancient Egypt. The Illustrated London News, a leading weekly publication at the time, was among the first to bring this groundbreaking news to the public, providing detailed coverage of the discovery and its significance. This image, which graced the front cover of the publication, remains a testament to the enduring fascination with the ancient world and the thrill of discovery that continues to captivate us today.
