Medinet Habu restoration

Jane Akshar has updated her Luxor News blog with a short but encouraging post about the restoration work being carried out at Medinet Habu, the Temple of Tuthmosis III. One of my favourite temples, becuase of the wonderful paintwork still visible, Jane says that black residues that have coated some of the scenes have been removed by the Chicago team, revealing even more of the precious colours.
