Jewels of the Nile: Ancient Egyptian Treasures from the Worcester Art Museum
Jewels of the Nile celebrates the very first time that the Worcester Art Museums internationally important collection of Egyptian jewellery which has undergone conservation and cleaning has been shown together. This strikingly illustrated book introduces the reader to the collection of an early 20th century Boston couple with a passion for ancient Egypt. The collectors, Laura and Kingsmill Marrs, were guided in their acquisitions by Howard Carter, the archaeologist who would later achieve world-wide recognition for his discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun (1922). Under his guidance, the Marrss purchased an outstanding selection of scarabs, amulets, jewellery and cosmetic-related articles, including rare blue-toned stone vessels. They also acquired a group of Carters watercolor renditions of important Egyptian sites and royal figures. These artifacts, as well as objects from Worcesters stellar collection of Egyptian antiquities, are included in the publication.
