A friend who is working on the Esna restoration project just sent me these stunning photos of the restored ceiling and columns of the Temple of Khnum in Esna, Upper #Egypt. The colours of the reliefs and inscriptions in the building have been covered by a coating of dirt and soot for some 2000 years.
Since 2018, the original bright colours have been uncovered.
