EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the enigmatic and iconic figure of Tutankhamun, the Pharaoh of Egypt's 18th Dynasty, who ruled from approximately 1334 to 1325 BC. Known as Tutankhamen in his native Egyptian language, this young ruler's reign began when he was just a boy, around the age of ten, following the death of his predecessor, Ay. Tutankhamun's reign marked a significant shift from the religious and political turmoil that had plagued Egypt during the latter part of the 18th Dynasty. He is believed to have restored the traditional worship of Amun-Ra, the king of the gods, and Akhenaten's reforms were largely reversed. This photographic print, from the extensive archives of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the mysterious world of ancient Egypt and the enigmatic Pharaoh Tutankhamun. The image depicts the young ruler wearing the White Crown, a symbol of Upper Egypt, adorned with the cobra uraeus, a sacred snake representing the goddess Wadjet, protector of Lower Egypt. The intricate details of his headdress, collar, and the delicate folds of his garments are a testament to the extraordinary craftsmanship and artistry of the ancient Egyptians. The discovery of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb in 1922 by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon brought renewed global interest in the Pharaoh and his era. This photographic print offers a unique opportunity to connect with the history and the allure of this remarkable ruler, whose legacy continues to captivate scholars, historians, and the public alike.
