Nefertiti, la Dea dell'Egitto

Il pezzo più pregiato della collezione di reperti archeologici egizi è senza dubbio il busto della regina Nefertiti.
C'è chi afferma che valga da solo un viaggio a Berlino.

Nefertiti, che per gli egiziani "la bella che è arrivata", identifica la regina egiziana (XIV secolo a.C.), sposa di Amenophis IV (Akhenaton, 1364-1347 a.C.).

Non si limitò ad interpretare il ruolo di grande sposa reale, poiché il faraone l’aveva coinvolta nella gestione del potere, e la sua influenza sulla guida politica del regno fu notevolissima.
