Queen Nefertari's Egypt
This spring at the New Orleans Museum of Art, journey into ancient Egypt by way of Queen Nefertari.
Queen Nefertari, the royal wife of Pharaoh Ramesses II (reigned 1279-13 BCE), is linked to some of the most magnificent monuments of ancient Egypt. Appearing in sculpture and images, and identified in inscriptions on buildings associated with Ramesses II, she is also known through a complete temple consecrated to her in Abu Simbel, beside the one dedicated to her husband. Her tomb is the largest and most richly decorated in the Valley of the Queens. It was discovered in the early 20th century by a team of archaeologists led by Ernesto Schiaparelli, then director of the Museo Egizio in Turin.
