Dit is een kopie van de beroemde buste van de Egyptische koningin Nefertiti, echtgenote van koning Achnaton (ca. 1353-1336 v. Chr.). In 1912 werd de sculptuur in de Egyptische stad Amarna opgegraven. De sculptuur wordt vaak een buste genoemd, naar een typisch Westerse vorm van portretuur waarbij alleen hoofd en schouders zijn gebeeldhouwd. Oud-Egyptische beeldhouwers maakten daarentegen in de regel enkel beelden van het volledige lichaam van een persoon. De buste van Nefertiti was dan ook niet bedoeld om tentoongesteld te worden. Het is een voorstudie voor beeldhouwers, die op basis van dit model officiële, volledige sculpturen van de koningin konden maken.

Das Freilichtgelände am Burgberg in Schwarzenbach besteht aus sieben Gebäuden und zahlreichen weiteren rekonstruierten Objekten wie Garten-, und Zaunanlagen. Diese erlauben dem Besucher den keltischen Lebensalltag selbst zu erfahren. Die Innenausstattung der Häuser mit Vorrats- und Kochbehältern, weiterem Hausrat und Werkzeug der späten Eisenzeit, soll das Alltagsleben dieser Zeit lebendig illustrieren.

Der hier gezeigte Innenraum stellt die Werkstätte eines Drechslers / Korbflechters dar und zeigt neben typische Werkzeuge auch diverse Rohmaterialien. Eine kleine Herdstelle mit zugehöriger Vorratsgrube und ein einfaches Bett kompletieren die Einrichtung.

Im Freilichtmuseum 'Keltendorf Mitterkirchen' wurde immer schon großer Wert auf eine aussergewöhnliche Innenausstattung der Gebäude gelegt. So finden sich in den Häusern immer wieder reichlich verzierte Möbel.

Eines der herausragendsten Stücke ist dieser Rundtisch mit Beinen in figürlicher Verzierung. Inspiriert durch die häufigen Darstellungen von Stieren in der hallstattzeitlichen Kunst, wurde auch hier das Motiv mittels prehistorischen Handwerksmitteln relativ frei umgesetzt.

In the open-air museum 'Keltendorf Mitterkirchen' it has always been very important to provide exceptional interior decoration for the buildings. Thus, you can always find richly decorated furniture in the houses.
One of the most outstanding pieces of this furniture, made according to Iron Age craftsmanship techniques, is this round table with legs in figural decoration. Inspired by the numerous representations of bulls in Hallstatt art, the motif was applied quiet freely here.

3D scan of a figure holding a crown and wearing jewelry, that is part of the architecture in Hall 6 of NHM Vienna, representing the chemical element Gold (Au). Gold is not only very rare but also one of the softest and heaviest metals and resistant to attack by air, heat, moisture and most solvents. Thanks to these qualities and its warm shine, gold was deemed the most precious of metals. All figures in Hall 6 of the NHM Vienna were created by Edmund Hofmann.
