In the steps of Egyptians

Thanks to the excellent Egyptian remains of ancient origin kept in some museums in Veneto it’s possible to make an interesting journey discovering the culture and the artistic production in Ancient Egypt. The visit starts at the Museo agli Eremitani in Padua containing some remains of Theban and Mephitic origin which belong to private collections such as the one of Gian Battista Belzoni. The second stage takes place at the Accademia dei Concordi in Rovigo, whose archaeological section possesses a series of Egyptian antiquities of collector’s origin.
