So, this morning, I was trying to
think of a different direction to go in learning about art. I tried to think about
experiences I have really enjoyed at museums, and I remembered a really nice exhibit I
once saw about the Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun. Ancient art, and Ancient
Egyptian art in particular, really fascinates me.
I looked for Egyptian art on the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s website, and found some information on Egyptian tombs that I think might be a good place to start. (http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/egtb/hd_egtb.htm). However, I have family in town and have had a long day, so you’ll have to wait until tomorrow or this weekend for a full blog on this type of art. I’m too tired to write much right now. In the meantime, here’s an Egyptian painted limestone on which to feast your eyes. More soon!
