The room is known as Gallery 115, but I have always called it βThe Hatshepsut Roomβ simply because it is the gallery in the MET where all of her statues πππππΎπ¦ are. The MET was instrumental in excavating Hatshepsutβs π³π¦π mortuary temple πππ at Deir el-Bahri π¦ππ¦π₯π, and all of the statues πππππΎπ¦ in this gallery are from that excavation.
While Hatshepsut π³π¦π was not the only female pharaoh ππ» in Egyptian history, she was without a doubt the most successful (if not one of the most successful pharaohs ππ»π¦ to ever live). During her rule, any Hyksos influence was now erased, and this time was kind of the βgolden ageβ for New Kingdom art. Egypt ππ ππ also had good relationships with neighboring peoples and trade flowed freely. This allowed Egypt to prosper in ways that it hadnβt before ππ ππ.
