Wonderful Things Art
Reproduction Ancient Egyptian Artwork by Natalie Watson

For the moment - an eternity it must have seemed to the others standing by - I was struck dumb with amazement, and when Lord Carnarvon, unable to stand the suspense any longer, inquired anxiously, 'Can you see anything?' it was all I could do to get out the words, 'Yes, wonderful things.”
HOWARD CARTER,
ON OPENING THE TOMB OF TUTANKHAMUN
