...and then they made me their chief.

I went to the MET today! Art museums are AMAZING!! I only got to cover a small part of it, but I have pictures from the Egyptian exhibit!! I got to meet Lauren and Ben as well...zomg, cool! They are so much fun to hang out with. I actually am not feeling very chatty, so I'll update more on my day in NYC.




Here we have fine wall art...probably from a tomb.



Part of a wall...you can see most notably Horus and Anubis...two women, perhaps Nut and Isis?



A closer picture of the fragment above...Anubis and unknown female goddess



A poor image...sorry



Don't you love the artistry?



Horus statue, very proud of this image.



Some mummy cases...classic male pharaonic cases.



A female mummy case...sorry it's so blurry.



My proudest image...the head from a statue of Tutankhamun.



A beautiful temple set up...with the gaurdian statues (my friend's in the way).



The temple doorway.



Statues of gods and goddesses...Bast the cat is my favourite.



Must be from a tomb...there's the feather of truth on the person's head...as well as the symbol for Osiris on top in gold.



I actually just loved the colours...the blue and gold.



A mummy!!



A closer look, the mummy was obviously important and more than likely a male.



Sorry it's fuzzy...but we can see Anubis, Horus...and another Anubis.



The Spinx at the front of the Egyptian Exhibit.
