Item Details

Description

Egypt, Middle Kingdom, 11th to 12th Dynasty, ca. 2030 to 1640 BCE. A skillfully carved wooden figure, perhaps a boatman or a domestic figure, with separately rendered articulated arms joined to the body via wooden pegs. The figure stands with legs together atop a large, integral peg. Once carved, the figure was covered in a thin layer of gesso and painted in red, black, and white hues. This example presents a quixotic visage with large lined eyes, a protruding triangular nose, and slightly-parted full lips, all topped with a coiffure with a fringe of bangs and tendrils running to the shoulders and a bit past the neck. An impressive figure, most likely created to be placed in the tomb of Egyptian royalty as was the custom. Funerary models of domestic scenes or boats were created to assist in the deceased's journey through the underworld. Size: 6.9" H (17.5 cm); 7.375" H (18.7 cm) on included custom stand.

Provenance: ex-Estate of Eldert Bontekoe, Pegasi Numismatics, Ann Arbor, Michigan USA acquired before 2000
