ID 250285866 © Djpillow | Megapixl.com

Pictured is a guardian statue of King Tutankhamun inside the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Cairo, Egypt. It is one of the two life-size guardian statues placed on either side of the door that gave access to the burial chamber. This statue wears a wig called a khat, has a gilded bronze cobra uraeus on the forehead, and clasps a stick in its left hand and a mace in its right hand. The material is wood painted with black resin and gilded with bronze. The museum was built in 1901 to a design by French architect Marcel Dourgnon. In 2022, the museum is due to be superseded by the newer and larger Grand Egyptian Museum at Giza.
