Rough Translation: Next December the Neues Museum in Berlin will host a major exhibition to mark the centenary of the discovery of the famous bust of Nefertiti. The exhibition, which will be held between 7th December 2012 and 13th April 2013, will present about 600 objects to provide a historical and cultural context that will provide an approximation to the Amarna period. Many of the objects on display with the bust (which was discovered on December 6th 1912 by archeologist Ludwig Borchardt at Amarna) n Luxor have never been publicly displayed before.
El Museo Nuevo de Berlín acogerá en diciembre próximo una gran exposición para recordar el centenario del descubrimiento del famoso busto de la reina egipcia Nefertiti, según un comunicado difundido hoy por los Museos Estatales de la capital alemana.
La muestra, que podrá verse entre el 7 de diciembre de 2012 y el 13 de abril de 2013, presentará alrededor de 600 objetos en su "debido contexto histórico-cultural", que permitirá una aproximación a la era de la reina Nefertiti y de su esposo, el gran faraón Akenatón.
Junto al busto, descubierto el 6 de diciembre de 1912 por el arqueólogo Ludwig Borchardt en el valle de Amarna, entre Luxor y El Cairo, los visitantes podrán ver muchos otros objetos hallados también entonces y nunca antes exhibidos públicamente, que serán debidamente restaurados.
