AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

小さな古代エジプトの二面性を持つ、ファイエンス製のワジャット(ウェジャット)の貴石イヤリング風お守り、通称「ホルスの目」。この勾玉は典型的なシルエットを示し、人間と鷹の眼部特徵を組み合わせている。目の細部は精巧に鋳造されており、眉は一本の彫り線で表現され、その下にはアーモンド形の眼と大きな円形の瞳孔、そして長い化粧線が付く。矩形の頬の marking は一つの溝で飾られ、基部から背面の蛇行へと続く最後の切込みがある。勾玉は両面とも型で形成されている。吊り下げ用に縦長に貫通孔が開けられている。地衣や擦過など、年齢の小さな兆候が見られる。

ホルスは古代エジプトで最も重要な神のひとりで、鷹の頭と人間の体を持つ姿が一般的である。太陽と月の神であり、右眼は太陽、左眼は月を象徴すると考えられている。ホルスの目、別名「ウェジャット」は、古代の守護の象徴として崇拝され、特に死後の世界を護るために用いられ、悪を退ける力もあった。そのため埋葬の際に故人に身につけられたり、掛けられたりすることが多かった。この象徴はエジプトの生活において強大な影響力を持ち、古代の船乗りたちは邪を避けるために船首にこの像を描いた。

寸法:幅1.3 cm × 長さ0.9 cm

来歴:1990年代にロンドンの美術市場で入手した、紳士のコレクションに由来するもの。
