About this asset

Limestone bust of Pharaoh Akhenaten (18th Dynasty, New Kingdom, c. 1353–1336 BC), depicted in the distinctive Amarna artistic style with elongated facial features, a nemes headdress, broad collar, and arms crossed over the chest bearing engraved royal cartouches. The Amarna style, introduced during Akhenaten's reign, broke from centuries of rigid Egyptian artistic convention, emphasizing naturalistic and idealized human forms. This artifact is housed at the Egyptian Museum (Al-Mathaf Al-Masri) on Mariette Street, Tahrir Square, Cairo, one of the world's foremost collections of ancient Egyptian antiquities.
