Papyrus Painting - Golden King Tut  Funeral Mask Side View on Dark Papyrus

King Tutankhamum was the youngest ruler of Egypt. The 12th king of the 18th Dynasty was only eight or nine years old at his succession.

King Tut's father was the heretic King Akhenaten.  Tutankhamun died at the age of 19.   The mask is on display at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo and weighs 11 kilos.  It is made of gold, and inlaid with blue lapis.

All papyrus paintings are sent with "rough" edges, easily trimmed to fit your framing needs.  Dark papyrus is aged by soaking it in water and letting the sugars age the papyrus, it breaks down the fibers and gives a very old authentic feel.  You may notice that there are some pin holes on the canvas, this is part of the aging process.

*****NOTICE****
Changes implemented by the Ministry of Antiquities requires all papyrus to be inspected by an expert - what this means is that while your order will show as shipped, it may in fact be on hold at the Cairo airport pending inspection. For this reason we are not able to combine papyrus orders with anything else, i.e. papyrus and jewelry, or glassworks etc. If you are ordering something else in addition to the papyrus you must order it separately. We apologize for any delays that may occur, ultimately it is about the preservation of the history of Egypt.
