Late Roman Egyptian Limestone Lintel - Oryxes, Grapes

Item Details

Description

Coptic / Roman Egypt, ca. 0 to 200 CE. This is a limestone lintel carved to show what appears to be two oryxes from the neck up and clusters of grapes. The quality of the carving is fine, particularly on the larger of the oryxes. There is evidence for some original paint or drawing on one side. The oryx, a genus consisting of four large antelope species, three of them native to arid parts of Africa, and the fourth to the Arabian Peninsula), was a temple sacrifice grown domestically for that purpose in Roman Egypt (and Pharaonic Egypt before). A lintel like this would probably have been placed above a small door. Size: 15.75" L x 3.75" W x 6.75" H (40 cm x 9.5 cm x 17.1 cm).

Provenance: Ex-private L. Nathan collection, acquired from NYC, NY dealer.
