A Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco Docent Lecture.
The inaugural exhibition at the new de Young Museum highlights the art created during the glorious reign of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut, who shared Egypt’s throne for nearly two decades. The phenomenon of a woman ruling a fundamentally patriarchal society and the omission of her name from later king lists have fuelled debate among Egyptologists for over a century. Her reign (ca. 1479-1458 BC) was a period of immense artistic creativity and this unprecedented exhibition brings together a vast treasure of royal statuary, sculpture, ceremonial objects, furniture, jewellery, and other personal items.
