About this 3D exhibition16 works

Ancient Egypt

A 3D virtual museum of ancient Egypt. Sculpture, jewellery, papyrus and funerary objects from a civilisation that carved for eternity and, in a sense, got its wish: its craftsmen are anonymous, and their work outlasted every empire that came after.

Every piece in this online exhibition comes from the Art Institute of Chicago's Open Access collection, released under CC0. Each label gives the artist, the date and the medium.
