Italy: Museo Egizio in Turin

On Thursday I got two postcards: one from Italy and one from China.

The card from Italy is from the Museo Egizio in Turin. The Museo Egizio is one of the ten largest Egyptian museums in the World. Its collection dates back to 1824, when King Charles Felix of Sardinia bought over 5000 pieces of Egyptian art including statues, papyri, stelae and mummies.
