A superb egyptian bronze Osiris figure, depicted standing with his hands emerging from his cloak, holding the crook and flail, and the atef-crown with uraeus, the missing plumes formerly inserted, his face with full outlined lips and eyes formerly inlaid. This image follows the canonical iconography of Osiris: the god is wrapped in a shroud that perfectly hugs the contours of his body. In his hands, he holds the flagellum (the nekhekh scepter, visible in the left hand) and the hekat scepter, the shepherds’ crook. On his head he wears his usual the atef crown, com-posed of the white crown of Upper Egypt, flanked by two ostrich feathers, now missing; a snake descends down the front of the headgear, where, just above the forehead, the head of the uræus would have been attached. Under the chin appears inserted the false beard. The piece includes two stands. Modern wood stand and old collection stone stand. Condition: Feet missing. Mineral deposits on the surface. Scratches scattered throughout the piece. Good overall condition. Height: 17,50 cm. Provenance: French auction house. Formerly french private collection, by inheritance.
