An Egyptian black steatite figure of Imhotep

Item Details

Description

An Egyptian black steatite figure of Imhotep
Late Period, circa 664-332 B.C.
Seated on a chair with cross-hatched sides, an opened papyrus unscrolled across his lap, wearing a close-fitting cap and incised short kilt, 4.3cm high
Footnotes:
Provenance:
François de Ricqlès, Paris, Archéologie, 30 September - 1 October 1996, lot 306.
Private collection, London, acquired from the above sale.

Imhotep was revered by Egyptians as the overseer of the construction of the first monumental stone pyramid in the Third Dynasty. He was associated with wisdom and writing and by the Late Period he was considered a deity with power over health and fertility, like the Greek god Asclepius. Cf. C. Andrews, Amulets of Ancient Egypt, British Museum, 1994, pp.16-17, fig.11a.
