古埃及人将天视为女神努特，她弓起身体，双手撑地，头和双腿分别象征着西方和东方天际的尽头。夜晚来临，太阳被她无情地吞噬，在腹中穿越重重危险和障碍，终于重获新生。当阿赫特（地平线）升起的第一缕阳光照亮了整个黑土地，新的一天开始了。

在埃及的母亲河——尼罗河畔，土壤肥沃，万物生长。农民们在炎炎烈日下辛勤劳作；高官们在花园的树荫下纸醉金迷。默然高耸的金字塔诠释着法老的永生之念；神庙的石柱上印下了五千年古国的沧桑。太阳历诉说着超凡智慧，象形文字留下了千古传奇。从荒芜到繁盛，从愚昧到文明，从简单的线条到繁复的图案，从素朴的土塚到巍峨的宫殿，古埃及人创造了无数奇迹，一个伟大的文明由此诞生。

我们从都灵埃及博物馆甄选了近150件组珍贵文物，向中国观众展示一个透过“埃及博物馆”这双“眼睛”看到的神秘国度，并希望借此在古老的尼罗河文明与拥有几千年历史的中国文明之间构建一座跨越时空的桥梁。此次展览并不奢望能完整地讲述埃及文明，而是旨在为那片神奇的土地描绘一个缩影，为观察那里的风土人情和风俗习惯提供一个新的视野。

The body of a woman bent with her arms on the ground, her head marking the western border of the sky, while her arms limit the eastern one. This is how ancient Egyptians represented the sky, with the arched goddess Nut, who cyclically gives birth to the sun every morning. This is the starting moment of the journey in Egypt.

Egypt. House of Eternity, the exhibition that takes the Nile Valley to China through the Museo Egizio, which bears like a monolithic pylon the symbolic load of the time and space connection between the ancient land of the Pharaohs to the thousands-years-old Chinese audience.

The exhibition offers a journey through space and time, starting from the moment when light defeats darkness; when the day of the ancient Egyptians starts, and the first rays of light rise from the akhet (the horizon) and light up the Kemet, the Black Land (Egypt). Under the burning sun of Egypt, bent on the fields, the peasants work the land ruled by the high functionaries, whose richly attired wives enjoy the cool and shady home gardens.

The light of the afternoon and the green of regeneration, introduces the section dedicated to religion, where a parallel journey starts, going from South to North through several religious cults.

When the day comes to an end and the sun sets in the West, it is relentlessly swallowed by the god Nut, whose womb is filled with danger and obstacles that can be overcome only thanks to the ritual, the funerary equipment and the power of magic formulas.

For Egypt. House of Eternity a selection of almost 150 prestigious sets of objects from the collection. 收起
