This piece caught my attention. Eyes on the outside so that you can see through the wood. How clever. When I looked at all the other Egyptian sarcophigi I was amazed at the level of detail spent on layer after layer of wood, plaster, and stone. These people had to be very wealthy to afford that kind of attention. Was this work done with slave labor? I need to read more about Eygpt.
This coffin/sarcophigus isn't that amazing, but the eyes caught me.
