Egyptian Bronze Striding Votive Figure - Nefertum

Item Details

Description

**Holiday Shipping Deadlines**
USA Domestic: 12/14 for Standard; 12/23 for Express; International: 12/7 for Standard; 12/19 for Express

Ancient Egypt, Late Period, ca. 664 to 332 BCE. A cast bronze votive statue, worn by time, probably depicting Nefertum. The son of Ptah and god of perfumes and unguents, Nefertum is depicted atop an integral rectangular plinth in a striding position with his left leg forward, with an erect back and arms hanging at his sides. He wears a kilt; his head has a beard and heavy wig. A tall, ornate headdress rises above his head. Size: 1.65" W x 3.7" H (4.2 cm x 9.4 cm)

The name 'Nefertum' literally translates to "one who does not close," indicative of the ever-blooming lotus flower constituting his crown. It is fitting, then, that Nefertum is primarily associated with fine-smelling perfumes and other beauty-enhancing substances, perhaps as an allegorical reference to the sweet scent emitted by a blossoming lotus flower.

Interestingly, both the lotus flower and the demiurge Ptah are symbolically associated with the cycle of life, death, resurrection, and rebirth. This integral relationship is important with regards to Nefertum wearing a lotus flower crown, and posits a two-fold symbolic interpretation: that Nefertum himself as a deity will in essence never die; and that the cycle of life and death itself is an unceasing process (hence, "one who does not close").
