Samenvatting
Hundreds of beautiful artworks from the time of Akhenaten, Nefertiti and Tutankhamen illustrate the splendour of Egypt in this examination of Egyptian art and culture at the time of the city of Amarna.

The images include sculpture, architectural elements, ceramics, jewellery, clothing, tools and furniture from collections worldwide.
