Die Wandreliefs des Zweiten Lichthofs im Grab des Monthemhat (TT 34). Versuch einer zeichnerischen Rekonstruktion.

在从第25王朝过渡到第26王朝的几十年里，蒙泰哈特是国王陛下的耳目，他向我们保证，他能够为自己挑选最好的宫廷工人。他的葬礼纪念碑(TT 34)的装饰，在底比斯的AsAsif延伸了三层，因此是最高质量的。这尤其适用于所谓的第二庭院。它的墙壁长12米，宽16米，上面覆盖着墓主及其家人的日常生活和周围环境，用高耸的、色彩丰富的浮雕描绘。今天只有20%的壮观景象被原址保存下来，数百个微小的碎片躺在地上，其他的散落在陵墓各处；许多碎片被抢劫并出售到国外。这一卷是第一次尝试重建这种墙壁装饰的设计。这一时期的艺术中的古风倾向，通过可比的古王国陵墓的内容来定位自己，帮助了我们，也帮助了我们与附近的伊比墓(TT 36)进行比较的可能性。在我们的眼前，一幅生动的全景展现了蒙蒂哈特的财富，这是他的佣人们在花园和田野里、在河边或在牧场上辛勤劳动的产物。我们观察了来自南方的重载船只的回归，金匠、雕塑家、造船商、马车制造者的活动，以及在墓主的作坊里生产凉鞋、焦油罐子和Ushhebtis的活动。我们观察酿酒师、农民、渔民和牧民的工作。最后，我们参加了Monthehat的娱乐活动，如棋盘游戏、音乐和舞蹈，还参加了在动画纸莎草沼泽中用棍子或长矛猎鸟和鱼的活动。

Monthemhat, "eye and ear of his Majesty" in the decades of transition from the 25th to the 26th dynasty, was able, as he assures us, to select the best of the palace workmen for himself. The decoration of his funeral monument (TT 34), extending over three levels in the Asasif of Thebes, was accordingly of the highest quality. This applies especially to the so-called Second Courtyard. Its walls, 12 m long and 16 m wide, were covered with scenes of 'daily life and the surroundings of the tomb owner and his family, depicted in elevated and richly painted relief. Today only 20 % of this splendour is conserved in situ, with hundreds of tiny broken fragments lying on the ground, others scattered all over the tomb; many fragments were robbed and sold abroad. This volume is the first attempt to reconstruct the design of this wall decoration. The archaistic tendency in the art of this period, orienting itself by comparable contents of Old Kingdom tombs^ helped us here, as did also the possibilities of comparison with the nearby tomb of Ibi (TT 36). Before our eyes there arises a vivid panorama of Monthemhat's wealth, the product of his domestics, who are working industriously in garden and field, beside the water or in the pasture. We observe the return of the heavily loaded ships coming from the South, the activities of gold-smiths, sculptors, ship-builders, carriage-builders, and the production of sandals, cahopic jars and ushebtis in the workshops of the tomb-owner. We observe the work of the vintagers, peasants, fisher- and herdsmen. And finally, we participate in Monthemhat's recreational activities, such as board games, music and dance, also in the hunting of bird and fish by the throw-stick or the spear in the animated papyrus-marshes.
