    The Boy King s Journey through the Underworld
    Tutankhamun s royal voyage into paradise, as told by ancient Egyptian treasures

    Buried in the 14th century BCE but unearthed by Howard Carter in 1922, the objects entombed with Tutankhamun are an invaluable window into a long-extinct belief system. Seen today, they create an intricate picture of how people of the time viewed the perilous journey to paradise, a utopian Egypt that could only be entered following the final judgment.

    When acclaimed photographer Sandro Vannini started his work in Egypt in the late 90s, a technological revolution was about to unfold. Emerging technologies enabled him to document murals, tombs, and artifacts in unprecedented detail. Using the time-consuming and strenuous multi-shot technique, Vannini produced complete photographic reproductions that revealed colors in their original tones with vivid intensity. Through these extraordinary images, we discover the objects quintessential features alongside the sophisticated and cleverly hidden details.
