Bust of Tutankhamun.



This Young Pharaoh's mannequin is a unique artefact carved in wood, gesso-polished and painted.

Although the body is sparsely detailed and without arms, the face is an accurate depiction of the young pharaoh wearing a flat crown with a uraeus or cobra. From Tutankhamun's tomb. Valley of the Kings west of Thebes. Now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
