Cover of the Illustrated London News, 24th February 1923: Unveiling the Mysteries of Tutankhamun's Wooden Portrait Dummy The cover of the Illustrated London News on the 24th of February, 1923, showcases a captivating image of a life-size wooden portrait dummy of Pharaoh Tutankhamun. This ancient Egyptian statue, believed to have been used for robing purposes, was a sensation in the archaeological world, as the tomb of Tutankhamun, discovered just a few years prior, had become the centre of global interest. The intricately carved wooden dummy, with its regal features and serene expression, offers a glimpse into the enigmatic world of ancient Egypt. The dummy's detailed headdress, adorned with gold and precious stones, further emphasizes the grandeur and wealth of the Pharaoh's civilization. The discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, led by the renowned archaeologist Howard Carter, had sent waves of excitement and fascination across the world. The tomb, filled with treasures and artifacts, provided invaluable insights into the life and times of this young Pharaoh. The wooden portrait dummy, a significant find among these treasures, added to the intrigue and mystery surrounding Tutankhamun and his ancient civilization. The Illustrated London News, a leading weekly newspaper at the time, captured the public's imagination with this striking cover image, bringing the wonders of ancient Egypt right to their doorstep. The image of the wooden portrait dummy of Tutankhamun serves as a testament to the enduring fascination with the ancient world and the mysteries it continues to reveal.
