:’) In “When the Pyramids Were Built: Egyptian Art of the Old Kingdom” (ed by Dorothea Arnold) there’s a pic of a the upper fragment of a colossal statue now believed to be a portrayal of Khufu, showing him with a crown. It’s to be hoped that the rest of the statue might someday be found under a pile of something, but alas, it’s not likely.
