Statuettes from the tomb of Tutankhamun

Statuettes from the tomb of Tutankhamun. The one in the middle, depicting Tutankhamun, was one of seven royal statuettes wrapped in linen, and placed in a black naos in his tomb. This statuette was stolen during the break-in at the museum on January 28, 2011; when it was recovered, some parts were missing and other parts were smashed; it was restored in the museum. (JE60713)
