Description : Egypt, Late Dynastic Period, 26th to 31st Dynasty, ca. 664 to 332 BCE. A cast-bronze figure of Osiris, the god of the underworld, standing atop an integral rectangular plinth. His distinguished position in Egyptian hierarchical structure of gods and demi-gods is pronounced by his Atef crown bearing a pair of broad ostrich feathers, a sun disk, and a frontal uraeus cobra with a pair of ram horns at its base identifying him as a king among men. His visage is defined by ovoid eyes with elongated corners, a broad nose, and a plaited false beard. A majestic piece depicting Osiris standing in his archetypal mummiform with fused legs, holding his signature flagellum and short-handled heka scepter.
