"Haremhab, The General Who Became King" Exhibition
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
This event has ended.
The Metropolitan Museum's magnificent lifesize statue of Haremhab as a scribe is the centerpiece of the exhibition. Thematic groupings of related objects—whether historical antecedents or parallel works—explain the particular relevance of this depiction, and place the statue within the context of history, art history, and the ancient Egyptian religious belief system. The exhibition also incorporates recent research into Haremhab's reign.
