Repatriation of The Golden Egyptian Coffin

06/20/2024


The golden coffin (150 BC) was stolen from Egypt and was illegally purchased by the Metropolitan Museum. I had the opportunity to photograph the Coffin at the Metropolitan Museum in 2018.

 Few months later, Egypt returned the golden Coffin and now is at the NMEC

At the Metropolitan Museum in New York in December 2018
