Abstract:

A special exhibition titled Temples and Tombs: Treasures of Egyptian Art from The British Museum will bring 85 objects from Egyptian history to the North Carolina Museum of Art. The works in stone, wood, precious metals, and papyrus will illuminate the Egyptian view of life, death, and the afterlife. The exhibition will be split into four sections which focus on the influence of the pharaoh or king, objects of artists and nobles, statures of Egyptians, and objects found in Egyptian tombs.
