(ANSAmed) - MILAN, MARCH 5 - An exhibition titled "Journey
Beyond the Darkness: Tutankhamon RealExperience" opens Thursday
at Milan's Palazzo Reale, despite the ongoing coronavirus
emergency, and it will be joined on March 11 by the exhibition
"Under the Sky of Nut: Divine Egypt" at the Milan Archaeological
Museum.
The 'journey to the beyond' is not only that of the famous
pharaoh, but also the visitor, who will be able to "experience"
the Egyptian afterlife through immersive projections and about
70 precious objects on loan from the Milan Archaeological Museum
and the Florence Archaeological Museum.
The exhibition is also a chance to see the so-called 'Corredo
Busca' items together, which include a mummy, a sarcophagus, a
papyrus, and a statue of the god Amon with features of
Tuntankhamon, on loan from the Fritz Beherens Foundation and the
August Kestner Museum in Hanover.
The show is curated by Sandro Vannini and sponsored by the
Palazzo Reale with Civita Shows and Museums and
Laboratoriorosso.
The exhibition at the Milan Archaeological Museum, dedicated
to the nature of the gods, will put 150 artifacts on display,
including sarcophagi, votive reliefs, mummies, and funerary
objects.
A discount ticket is available for visitors who wish to see
both exhibitions.(ANSAmed).
