You tell me what you know to be true.
A CT scan was done many years ago
And it discovered that the actual core, the thing that was in the limestone, looked very different to the stucco outside.
The stucco outside was that beautiful chiseled face that pop stars try to emulate and is on every tea towel that you buy if you're into Egyptology.
The one underneath, though, has a slightly more sagging face, a bump on the nose.
It is the face of a woman, a normal woman, not a perfect woman.
So to me, this feels like a 3,000-year-old Photoshop could have been done
I mean, is that a reasonable thing to suggest?
I guarantee you we've got sculptors who listen to this.
So do get in touch.
Because, you know, the argument is that she was a normal woman in the sculpture and then this outward appearance of utter perfection is placed on top.
Because, you know, faces don't look that pretty.
They just don't.
And I know that there's been a request since, I think it's as late as 2016, where there was a Freedom of Information request saying, can we do a CT scan?
Could we please have it for studying?
And I think the museum said, no, because of merch.
Because if you do put out this other image, all our merch is going to be compromised.
Yes.
Wouldn't we all?
I mean, seriously.
