Guarding the Tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt, 1922: A Vintage Lantern Slide Image This vintage lantern slide image transports us back in time to the historic moment when the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, the Boy King of Egypt, was being guarded in the Valley of the Kings in 1922. The discovery of this nearly intact tomb by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon had created a global sensation, and the world held its breath as the priceless artifacts were carefully removed and cataloged. In this evocative photograph, we see a group of Egyptian guards standing watch over the entrance to the tomb, their traditional headdresses and weapons creating a stark contrast against the golden sand and the dark, ominous shadows cast by the setting sun. The guards, dressed in their traditional garb, appear alert and focused, their lanterns casting a warm, flickering light on the ancient hieroglyphics that adorn the tomb's entrance. The Victorian and Edwardian era, with its sense of adventure and fascination for all things exotic, is beautifully captured in this image. The use of a lantern slide, a popular method of projecting images during this time, adds to the nostalgic and romantic feel of the photograph. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of Egypt's rich history and the sense of wonder and discovery that continues to captivate us to this day. This stunning image is part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a treasure trove of historical photographs that offer a unique glimpse into the past. Whether used for personal research, educational purposes, or simply to add a touch of history to your home or office, this image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in ancient Egypt, archaeology, or the history of photography.
