Yeah, I was also mesmerized when I saw it up close. Pictures just don't do it justice. It was a very spiritual experience for me.

Of course it's stunning, but I'm going to lay my money on the Terra cotta army in China

Notice the soldier infront of the one with the yellow collar is asleep

then you look and realize they're ALL that distinctive

Seen the Terra Cotta Warriors, haven't seen the mask first hand. Still, I like the mask more. Could be just because it's more shiny though Wink

Tut's mask is certainly exquisite. But I can never look at it without wondering just how outraged he would be at lowborn peasants like us ogling at his sacred treasure.

It's marvelous (as is the sculpture of Nefertiti) but I'm partial to the Book of Kells and maybe even more to http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/2939362.stm
