Kienzle Zeitgeist
Heinrich Johannes Möller

Möller entwickelte einen eigenen Stil für das Uhrendesign ab den 30´ger Jahren des 20. Jh. Uhren sollten keine Möbelstücke mehr sein, sondern kleine Kunstwerke.
Tête d'une princesse amarnienne
, fille d'Aménophis IV/Akhénaton (1347-1330 av. J.-C.) et Néfertiti. Provient de l'atelier du sculpteur Thoutmosis à Amarna. Nouvel Empire, XVIIIe dynastie. Berlin, Neues Museum
The Amarna Period was an era of Egyptian history during the latter half of the Eighteenth Dynasty when the royal residence of the pharaoh and his queen was shifted to Akhetaten ('Horizon of the Aten') in what is now Amarna. It was marked by the reign of Amenhotep IV, who changed his name to Akhenaten (1353–1336 BC) in order to reflect the dramatic change of Egypt's polytheistic religion into one where the sun disc Aten was worshipped over all other gods.
Aten was not solely worshipped (the religion was not monotheistic), but the other gods were worshipped to a significantly lesser degree.
The Egyptian pantheon of the equality of all gods and goddesses was restored under Akhenaten's successor, Tutankhamun.
