Coventry’s Herbert Art Gallery & Museum is holding a free audio description of an amazing object from Ancient Egypt on Tuesday 7 September. The museum is showing an exquisite plaque of the pharaoh Akhenaten as a taster for a major exhibition about Ancient Egypt next year. This piece is almost 3,500 years old, and shows the Pharaoh who tried to transform Egyptian religion, and as a result, his image and name was defaced and erased from the Egyptian historical record. The Herbert’s specialist in Egyptology, Chris Kirby, is giving a public talk about this plaque and the most turbulent moment in ancient Egyptian history, and to aid visually impaired visitors there will be a free live audio description of the plaque beforehand.
The audio description will be at 11.15, with the illustrated talk “Who was Pharaoh Akhenaten?@ at 12.30 to 1.30. Both of these events are free. For more details, please contact Jack Shuttleworth on 024 7629 4752.
