London, The London Illustrated News, 1923, (153)-192 pag., illustrated, original stapled illustrated wrappers, folio (39 x 27,3 cm.). = Rare. The Illustrated London News published famous special numbers and extensive photographic coverage following the 1922 discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon. The discovery and exploration of Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922 by Howard Carter captivated the world. The Illustrated London News played a pivotal role in reporting the findings over the next decade. Uncovering treasures unseen for thousands of years, the tomb provided unprecedented insights into ancient Egyptian royalty. The newspaper's extensive coverage included detailed articles, interviews, and illustrations, bringing the excavation to life for readers. The ongoing reporting by the Illustrated London News fuelled public fascination, sparking a renewed interest in ancient Egypt and leaving a lasting impact on archaeology. The original colour photographs of Tutankhamun's (Tutankhamen's) tomb and its treasures were taken by Harry Burton during the 1922 archaeological expedition led by British archaeologist Howard Carter. The process of capturing colour photographs (autochrome) during that time was quite complex and required specialized equipment and techniques. The magazine contains the following photo-illustrated articles and captions relating to Tutankhamen's tomb: "On Guard at his sepulchre for 3000 years: A statue of Tutankhamen"; "Parallel to Tutankhamen relics: objects from other "finds"; "In Tutankhamen's Tomb: gilded couches and chariots, and a gold and silver throne."; "Mummified food for the King's "Ka": Tutankhamen's larder", double-pag colour photo-spread "Red Hills in whose heart Tutankhamen lies: the colour of Egypt"; "Guardiabs of the mystery: statues at the sealed door of Tutankhamen's tomb"; "Still holding unguent: Tutankhamen's superb alabaster vases"; "How the soul of a pharaoh guards his tomb: the Ba-bird".…
