Sneak Preview of a Work in Progress: The Tomb of Tutankhamun 




Here is an illustration I've been working on recently, it's still a work in progress as is part of a much larger piece, so I'm hoping to be able to show the finished article before too long.

This artwork shows objects in the antechamber of the Ancient Egyptian 'boy king' Tutankhamun, at the time of its discovery by Howard Carter in 1922. I am working on an illustration showing the entire tomb and the artefacts within, but it is proving quite labour intensive, since I am keen to make the illustration as accurate as possible which is requiring considerable research. Luckily Howard Carter was meticulous in his excavation, and all the artefacts have been numbered, photographed and catalogued.

I will keep you posted!
