Magnet Cat in Reed

Cat in Reed is inspired by the Chamber of Mummies of the UT Art Museum. The Chamber of Mummies is an addition to the permanent exhibition of the museum, opened at the beginning of 2017, mostly to exhibit two main rarities of the museum, Egyptian human mummies. The mummies originate from the collection of Otto Friedrich von Richter (1791–1816), one of the first Estonian orientalists. After Richter’s premature death, his father gave his son’s collection to the University of Tartu.

The design of the souvenirs follows the theme and style of the Chamber of Mummies.

Designers: Anne Arus, Maarja Roosi (the University of Tartu)
