The Petrie Book
Photographing Petrie's ancient Egyptian treasures by ÐÂÏã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹ûEducational Media
The centenary of the opening of the Petrie Museum was on the 7th June 2015. ÌýTo honour this occasion a glossy book was created. The book was to have a narrative style that would appeal to the general public. It would give an overview of the range and scope of the collection. No good book is complete without pictures. WeÌýwereÌýcommissioned to take some new pictures, and others were chosen from our archive. All the pictures on this page were taken by Mary Hinkley and they all appear in the book.
