这些随图坦卡蒙一同入葬的物品，于公元前14世纪被掩埋，1922年由霍华德·卡特发掘出土，它们是一扇无比珍贵的窗口，让我们得以窥见一个早已消逝的信仰体系。如今看来，这些物品勾勒出一幅复杂的图景，展现了古埃及人对通往天堂的艰险旅程的看法——那是一个乌托邦式的埃及，只有在最终审判之后才能进入。

当著名摄影师桑德罗·范尼尼在20世纪90年代末开始他在埃及的工作时，一场技术革命即将拉开序幕。新兴技术使他能够以前所未有的细节记录壁画、陵墓和文物。范尼尼采用耗时且费力的多镜头技术，制作出完整的摄影复制品，以鲜明强烈的色彩还原了物品原本的色调。通过这些非凡的图像，我们得以发现这些物品的典型特征，以及那些精妙且巧妙隐藏的细节。

这本详尽的指南纪念卡特在帝王谷首次发掘一百周年。这些珍贵的文物通过范尼尼的摄影作品，以其完整而永恒的辉煌得以留存。从祭品、仪式到奥西里斯和永生，范尼尼的作品集涵盖了古埃及文化的各个方面——但在这些图像中，图坦卡蒙独特的遗产占据了主导地位。书中包含摄影师撰写的文字、专家穆罕默德·梅加hed的说明文字，以及该领域学者撰写的章节引言，《图坦卡蒙：穿越冥界之旅》为诸多备受争议的谜团画上了句号。学识渊博且通俗易懂的前言由著名埃及学家撰写，包括萨利玛·伊克拉姆和大卫·P·西尔弗曼。富有洞察力的叙述、绚丽的图像以及当代视角，使这本书成为对这位少年国王历程的恰当致敬，也照亮了那个跨越了难以想象的4000年的时代。

Buried in the 14th century BC but unearthed by Howard Carter in 1922, the objects entombed with Tutankhamun are an invaluable window into a long-extinct belief system. Seen today, they create an intricate picture of how the ancient Egyptian people viewed the perilous journey to paradise, a utopian Egypt that could only be entered following the final judgment.

When acclaimed photographer Sandro Vannini started his work in Egypt in the late ’90s, a technological revolution was about to unfold. Emerging technologies enabled him to document murals, tombs, and artifacts in unprecedented detail. Using the time-consuming and strenuous multi-shot technique, Vannini produced complete photographic reproductions that revealed colors in their original tones with vivid intensity. Through these extraordinary images, we discover the objects’ quintessential features alongside the sophisticated and cleverly hidden details.

This comprehensive guide marks the centenary of Carter’s first excavations in the Valley of the Kings. These inestimable works endure through Vannini's photographs in their full, timeless splendor. From offerings and rituals to Osiris and eternal life, Vannini’s portfolio covers all facets of ancient Egyptian culture―but it is Tutankhamun’s unique legacy that dominates these images. With texts by the photographer, captions by specialist Mohamed Megahed, and chapter introductions from scholars in the field, King Tut. The Journey through the Underworld puts much-debated mysteries to rest. The learned yet accessible forewords come from distinguished Egyptologists including Salima Ikram and David P. Silverman. Insightful narratives, resplendent images, and a contemporary standpoint make this title a fitting tribute to the Boy King’s odyssey, illuminating an epoch that spanned an unimaginable 4,000 years.
