Visitors are flocking to the Egyptian Museum of Turin, despite the temporary closure of the statuary rooms. The museum is currently hosting a new temporary exhibition called ''Towards the New Gallery of Kings,'' which is showcasing statues of gods and pharaohs in its Gallery of Kings. The Academy of Sciences and the Egyptian Museum are working together to offer guests an experience that traces the museum's history back to its inception 200 years ago. The grand sculptures of pharaohs and deities first made their way to Turin in 1823, along with thousands of other pieces from the Drovetti collection. These items were placed in the building that continues to house both institutions, leading to the establishment of the world's first Egyptian Museum in 1824. The exhibition is currently recreating the statues' original arrangement in the courtyards of ancient Egyptian temples, where divinities and pharaohs connected with their worshippers while affirming their authority. Now, visitors are able to observe details of the artifacts that were once hard to see in the previous setup, such as the hieroglyphic inscriptions on Thutmose I's throne or the complex design of Pharaoh Horemheb's headdress. The statues' new proximity is allowing guests to appreciate them more intimately, yet their grandeur remains undiminished.

The Egyptian Museum of Turin is currently showcasing a new temporary exhibition called ''Towards the New Gallery of Kings.'' The exhibition is displaying statues of gods and pharaohs in its Gallery of Kings. The Academy of Sciences and the Egyptian Museum are collaborating to offer visitors an experience that traces the origins of the museum, which dates back 200 years to when the majestic sculptures of pharaohs and deities first arrived in Turin in 1823, along with thousands of other artifacts from the Drovetti collection. These artifacts were housed in the building that still accommodates the two institutions and led to the creation of the first Egyptian Museum in the world in 1824. The installation is recreating the original arrangement of the statues in the courtyards of the temples of ancient Egypt, where divinities and pharaohs maintained a bond with their followers while expressing their authority. Visitors are currently able to appreciate details of the artifacts that were previously difficult to see in the old arrangement, such as the hieroglyphic inscriptions on the throne of the statue of Thutmose I, or details of the headdress of the pharaoh Horemheb. The proximity to the statues is allowing visitors to appreciate them better, without diminishing their grandeur.
