Descubra la tasación y los precios de esta y más obras de arte africano en Africartmarket. Miniature Egyptian Limestone Stela - Falcon-Headed Ra-Horakhty, 2005



Descripción : Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom, 19th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1292 to 1070 BCE. A rare, near-miniature example of a limestone stela bearing a pair of stylized anthropomorphic figures facing one another. The figure on the right - perhaps a priest or scribe - wears a lengthy skirt that extends in front of his ankles and holds both hands in front of his elongated head, gesturing to the falcon-headed Ra-Horakhty surmounted by a sun disc in front of him. Above the figures are 5 columns of inscribed hieroglyphs that are likely a phrase of worship by the owner of the stela to Ra-Horakhty given how the left 2 columns read Ra-Horakhty, the great god, lord of heaven. The two columns on the right - plus a single sign in a third column - identify the man who offers a bouquet of flowers to the god.
