EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment just before Howard Carter and his party, including Lord Carnarvon, his financial backer, set off from Lord Carnarvon's house at the foot of the Valley of the Kings in Egypt on February 17, 1923. Carter, seated in the driver's seat of the car, is deep in thought, while Lord Carnarvon, dressed in a suit and hat, and his companions, Sir Alan Gardiner (Mace) and Sir James Burton, look on. The group had recently made a groundbreaking discovery in the tomb of Tutankhamun, and the excitement of their findings is palpable. The image, published on page 160 of The Illustrated London News on December 21, 1923, provides a rare glimpse into the historical moment as the team prepared to leave the site and return to civilization. The image is a testament to the importance of their discovery and the significant role that Lord Carnarvon played in funding and supporting the archaeological expedition. This photograph is a valuable historical record of a pivotal moment in the history of Egyptology.
