This exhibition has closed

It closed on 17 August 2026. The page stays because an exhibition history is evidence: where a work was shown, and when, is part of its provenance and this archive cites it.

Visiting Museo Egizio

Two loans from Paris, a pyramidion inscribed with Kha's name from the Louvre and Merit's Book of the Dead from the Bibliotheque nationale de France, shown with objects from their tomb to mark the 120th anniversary of its 1906 discovery. Closes on its own last day.

The Iconotheca Letter

One artwork and its story every Tuesday, with the picture: who owned it, what it made, and what closes soon in the exhibition calendar. No promotion, and nothing we cannot cite.
