For #Tutankhamun100 today
Howard Carter’s largest known watercolour (1.2 x 1.3 m) was painted in 1894 when Carter was only 19 years old. It shows a scene from Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple at Deir el-Bahari of her father Thutmose I and his mother Senseneb. Very little is known about Senseneb. 🖌 EES ART.224

Today I got to see one of my favourite books, complete with the author's notes and scribbles. This is not just any old book in a glass case, this is the original manuscript of Far From The Madding Crowd at @DorsetMuseum and a tiny insight into Thomas Hardy's writing process! 💜📝

The likeness of a king. As the Royal Mint unveils new coins featuring King Charles III, here's the iconic representation of King Tutankhamun: a mask of solid gold. This photo was taken in-situ (1925), showing the mask as an integral part of the mummified figure of the king.

Noi destinatari privi di destinazione, noi futuribili presenti, ipotesi di attimi diversi. Noi come mani chiuse a pugno, sorrisi a denti stretti, ciarlatani e menzogneri, illusi, folli, briciole dello stesso pane, gocce dello stesso vino. Noi due di uno, divisi e prigionieri.
