From a show at the Brooklyn Museum.

I wanted to submit this picture without comment, but Medium won’t let me do that.

Do you read follow Eidolon here on Medium? The classics are a battle ground. There are plenty of people currently pushing a version of “Western Civilization” that would be right at home in the prep schools and colleges of the 1920s.

I wish I could say that discussions of Nefertiti’s color or Africanness are silly, but they’re not. Not by a long shot, as your post makes clear.
