1923 Print Pharaoh Thothmes IV Tiaa Karnak Cairo Museum Tuatankhamen Queen XGQ3

This is an original 1923 halftone print of Pharaoh Thothmes IV and Tiaa, his queen. It was carved from black granite and is now a treasured artifact in the Cairo Museum. The coiffure of the queen calls for special notice. The statue of the king, believed to be a good portrait shows a powerfully built man in the full vigor of his youth. On his head is the royal uræus, and around his loins is the shenti, kept in place by a buckled belt.
