#mummyportrait

I spent the month of June intensively researching two Fayum portraits from the Allard Pierson Museum, with a specific focus on materials and techniques. I am excited to share that part of my research on one of the portraits is now featured in an Ancient World Magazine article (co-authored with Branko van Oppen): 'The girl with the golden wreath'. The article combines research from the perspective of technical art history with research of the portrait's provenance and its original cultural significance. A fruitful combination resulting in a comprehensive view of the biography of an ancient portrait!

Fayum mummy portraits are realistic portraits on wooden boards from the Coptic period and among the best survived art from the period. . #portrait #manportrait #fayum #fayumportraits #curlyhair #curlyhairstyles #copticperiod #ancientart #lookingatyou #mummyportrait #ancientworld (at Fayum, Al Fayyum, Egypt)
