Wall Decoration from the Funerary Apartments of
King Djoser
A trip to the Met to see the Alexander McQueen exhibit,
Savage Beauty (unfortunately no pictures allowed) produced not photos of haute couture, but of our meanderings through different period and cultural exhibits. The Met, and this is an understatement, is astounding. The McQueen exhibit is one of the most inspiring we've seen in years and today we also found great inspiration in the
Egyptian Exhibit. We're showing the masterful sculpts and fragments of color on soothing earth tones today, but stay tuned for more.
