Ramses the Great and the Gold of the Pharaohs, on view at the de Young Museum, features one of the greatest collection of Egyptian artifacts ever to travel to the United States. Alfred Escoffier, a docent from the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, will explore Ramses’ life and discuss the marvelous treasures in the exhibition, from the pharaoh’s colossal royal sculpture to mummies and exquisite Egyptian jewelry.
