From the King Tut exhibit at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. Fascinating character, Akhenaten, father of King Tut. He was a monotheist before even Zoroaster. Monotheism turned out not to be such a great thing for the ancient Egyptians, though. This was the one photo I managed to click in the exhibit before security kindly informed me there was to be no more photography. Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission!
