Beschreibung : Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom, 19th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1292 to 1077 BCE. An attractive example of a mold-formed pottery ushabti covered in white pigment and accentuated with areas of red and black. The figure stands in mummiform with fused legs and three yellow 'bandages,' holds a black-painted pick and hoe in arms crossed atop the chest, and has a seed bag painted on the verso. The peaceful visage exhibits almond-shaped eyes with elongated corners, a slender nose, full lips, and a tapered chin, all beneath a black tripartite wig with lengthy lappets and a white fillet wrapped around the middle. When translated, a black hieroglyphic inscription down the legs reads, The Illuminate, the Osiris, Wah-Smen, [the one who] lays down the record. Size: 1.8 W x 6.2 H (4.6 cm x 15.7 cm), 6.8 H (17.3 cm) on included custom stand.
