This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of a Tutankhamun Chest, dating back to the New Kingdom era in ancient Egypt around 1340 BC. Crafted from painted wood by skilled artisans of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this chest is now housed in the esteemed Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. Tutankhamun, also known as King Tut, was an iconic pharaoh who reigned during the prosperous period of Egyptian history called the New Kingdom. This intricate chest bears witness to his reign and offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of that time. The chest's surface is adorned with elaborate hieroglyphics and decorative motifs depicting scenes of battle and warfare.
