History, geography and science

In French.

The Egyptian reliefs of the New Kingdom represent the finest example of the Egyptian Antiquities Department of the Louvre Museum, flagship objects because of their dimensions and aesthetic qualities that culminated in this period. This includes the 18th dynasty and the Ramesside period of the 19th and 20th dynasties. The well-known names of the pharaohs resonate in the memories, whether they are the Thutmes, the Amenophis, as well as the Rameses lineage. Similarly, the monuments of the senior civil servants of this favourite period reveal some remarkable and universal masterpieces.
