World of Pharaohs: The Treasures of Egypt Revealed
World of the Pharaohs: The Treasures of Egypt Revealed will be on display September 25, 2009 through July 5, 2010 in Little Rock at the Arkansas Arts Center. The exhibit is organized by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The Egyptian collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston is one of the largest and most comprehensive in the world. Today, it is best known for the works excavated from 1905-1947 by the Harvard University-Boston Museum of Fine Arts Expedition directed by George Andrew Reisner (1867-1942). Reisner is recognized as a pioneering force in the application of scientific methodology in archaeology. Under his supervision, these excavations provided the MFA with the best collection, outside Egypt, of art from the Old Kingdom.
