Meer over het boek
"Marking the centenary of Howard Carter's first excavations in the Valley of the Kings, and in collaboration with a series of international exhibitions, this comprehensive guide combines a contemporary understanding of the ancient Egyptian afterlife with Sandro Vannini's super-high-resolution photography to cast an enthralling light on the voyage Tutankhamun was thought to make after death. Buried in the 14th century BC but unearthed by Carter in 1922, the objects entombed with Tutankhamun offer an invaluable window on to a long-extinct belief system. Seen today, they create an intricate picture of how the ancient Egyptian people viewed the perilous journey to paradise, a utopian Egypt that could only be entered following the final judgment."--Inside jacket front flap
