More than three thousand years ago a sculptor working in the royal city of Amarna carved a limestone bust of an Egyptian queen. The queen was Nefertiti, consort of the heretic pharaoh Akhenaten.
Plastered & painted, Nefertitis bust depicted an extraordinarily beautiful woman. However, Akhenatens reign was drawing to an end, & the royal family was soon to be written out of Egypts official history. Not long after its creation the stone Nefertiti was locked in a storeroom & forgotten.
In 1912 the bust was re-discovered & transported to Germany. Initially hidden from the public view, the beautiful queen was eventually displayed in Berlin Museum. Instantly, she became an ancient world celebrity.
