Home Turin & Piedmont TURIN AND THE EGYPTIAN MUSEUM
20060202 - TORINO - SPE - MUSEI: EGIZIO TORINO, DANTE FERRETTI LO RIEMPIE DI LUCE
Il nuovo allestimento di una delle sale del Museo Egizio di Torino. Lo scenografo Dante Ferretti, premio Oscar per il film "The Aviator" e curatore delle scene dello scorso festival di Sanremo, ha rivoluzionato la scenografia del museo con i suoi "Riflessi di pietra" . Attraverso l'utilizzo di fasci di luce e specchi le sfingi, i faraoni e le divinità egiziane sono state irradiate di nuova luce. Il restyling di Ferretti è costato un milione e 300 mila euro, e illuminerà il Museo in vista dei giochi invernali di Torino 2006. FRANCESCO DEL BO / ANSA/ I50

Descrizione prodotto

Stroll under the elegant arcades full of antique shops and fine cafes.

The Most Important Items: The Drovetti Collection, which forms the original nucleus of the Egyptian Museum, gathers 98 statues, as well as an extraordinary collection of papyri which can be considered as the most important set of Egyptian written documents in the world.

Highlights of the collection include: The Royal Papyrus, also known as the Papyrus of Turin, with the list of all the kings from 3,000 to 1,600 BC. The extraordinarily rich linen cloth, discovered in 1930 in a prehistorical and unplundered tomb at Gebelein. The linen pieces are the most ancient painted in the world (between 4,300 and 3,500 BC). They depict boats, hunting scenes, and ritual dances.

The Ellesija Temple from Nubia dates back to more than 3,500 years ago, and was presented by the Egyptian government to Italy following the works carried out by the Italian mission in removing monuments and temples from the area of the Assuan Dike. In order to be transported to Italy, it was extracted and then reconstructed in the museum.

The Tomb of Kha, discovered in 1906 during the excavation campaign carried out by the Italian archaeological mission in Deir-el-Medina, is the most impressive and remarkable ensemble of the whole museum. Dating back to 3,500 BC, it houses sarcophagi and statues, as well as furniture, garments and grooming items.
