Ancient Egypt, Middle Kingdom, 12th Dynasty, ca. 1991 to 1802 BCE. A hand-carved wooden arm and grasping hand from a larger statue, with one end terminating in a tenon joint. Fine details of the fingers and the overall shape reveal this to be a naturalistic style, presumably based on a real model. There are the remains of a light pigment still on the wood.
