Read the excerpt from a short walk around the pyramids and through the world of art.

in their still room in the museum, we can see how beautifully they are carved. the jowls of the horse, its muzzle, the backs of the other gods – all things that could not have been seen when they were on their high perch – are cut with as much care as though they had been made for the floor of the great temple.

jowls – lower part of an animal’s cheek
muzzle – jaws and nose of an animal
