An Egyptologist who set out in search of kings buried for centuries beneath the desert sands, Jean Capart, through his discoveries and the intelligence of his deductions, made the most valuable contribution to a complicated and fascinating historical science. Thanks to him, there exists a Belgian Egyptology. A specialist in museography, he devoted his entire life, ardently and patiently, despite the obstacles he encountered in the thickets of administration, to the realization of a great work: the Cinquantenaire Museums of Art and History in Brussels. He did not die without having completed this work.
