Description
This lot presents an ancient Egyptian statuette of Osiris, the deity of the afterlife and resurrection. The figure stands 9 cm tall and is 2.5 cm wide (approximately 3.54x0.98 inches), intricately carved from stone. Believed to be from the 18th Dynasty, an era marked by the reigns of powerful pharaohs and a flourishing of the arts and architecture. This statuette exemplifies the period's sophisticated craftsmanship and religious artistry. Osiris, represented in his typical mummified form and wearing the Atef crown, was a crucial figure in Egyptian mythology and played a significant role in the concept of divine kingship and the afterlife. A collector's piece, it evokes the grandeur and mystery of ancient Egyptian civilization and would be a prestigious addition to any collection of antiquities.
