The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, along with cultural institutions across the globe, recently closed to help prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus. This meant we had to close our featured exhibition “Queen Nefertari: Eternal Egypt” two weeks earlier than expected. Because many planned to visit during the final weeks, Nelson-Atkins Director Julián Zugazagoitia is offering an impromptu virtual tour of some of the highlights. We hope that you enjoy this glimpse into Ancient Egypt as we #MuseumfromHome together.

Organized by Museo Egizio, Turin, and StArt in collaboration with The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and Pointe-à-Callière, Montréal Archaeology and History Complex, and National Geographic Society.
