The period-specific colours extend around the #MainGalleries as well. #Hatshepsut kneels on a dark blue plinth under a yellow canopy, because she’s a New Kingdom star!✨

If visitors just want a whistle-stop tour in the newly opened #MainGalleries at the GEM, they can rush round just looking at star objects, with dark blue labels and carefully chosen illustrations (although quite hard to photograph!)
#GEM #GrandEgyptianMuseum
Each time period has its own colour in the #MainGalleries, with green, turquoise, yellow or red texts telling the stories.

Other objects in the #MainGalleries maybe less expected in an Egyptian gallery, but the timespan covered at #GEM is really long, from the Lower Paleolithic Period until when Egypt became a province of the Roman Empire.

Some objects in the #MainGalleries are just fabulous, beautiful, fascinating artefacts very well displayed. Especially the statues (for me)
#GEM #GrandEgyptianMuseum
The showcases in the #MainGalleries are pretty great too. Every object is given context and fitted into a greater narrative, and once again there’s been real concentration on getting lighting and spacing right.
#GEM #GrandEgyptianMuseum
There are clear visitor pathways through each gallery, and because the #MainGalleries are so large (#GEM is enormous), beautifully lit objects are given space to breathe.
#GrandEgyptianMuseum
The #MainGalleries are divided into four broad time periods and three themes of Society, Kingship and Beliefs. Visitors can travel through Egyptian history, or go up and down the themes, or combine both to create their own journey
#GEM #GrandEgyptianMuseum
The #MainGalleries, full of wonderful objects and stories, are accessible, spacious, air-conditioned and well-lit, and offer different modes of presentation for all, with apps and guides, models, interactive screens and augmented reality experiences.
#GEM #GrandEgyptianMuseum
The Main Galleries at the #Grand Egyptian Museum are now open for visits! Spanning over 700,000 years of Egyptian history, these 12 galleries bring the past to life with engaging storytelling and modern, accessible labelling in Arabic and English. #GEM #MainGalleries
