Sculpture of a Queen.
- Very Fine Piece -
Ptolemaic Period 332-30 BC.
Hardened limestone.
36.5 cm height.
PROVENANCE:
- Private collection, Belgium, acquired in the 1980s.
- Private collection, François Antonovich, Paris, France.
- Sold by judicial auction in 2022.
CONDITION: In a good general state of preservation, without restoration. There is a chip on the right plait and the end of the cornucopia is missing, as are the feet and the base of the sculpture.
DESCRIPTION:
A sculpture representing a queen of the Greek dynasty of the Ptolemies. During the domination of Egypt by the descendants of Alexander the Great, art underwent a period of change, incorporating classic elements of Egyptian iconography, while it still retained its roots and most essential elements intact.
The hieratic stance of the figure can be clearly appreciated, with the left leg forward as if in movement. The queen would have been positioned on a rectangular base from which a pillar would have risen to support the back of the figure. This was a typical element giving stability to Egyptian representations.
Her body, although without any decoration, is covered by a long-sleeved tunic closely fitting her body from the neck to the ankles. The technique of “panneggio bagnato”, wet drapery, has been used so that the clothing clings so closely that the outlines and details of female anatomy, such as the navel, can be seen to perfection.
The right arm hangs down by the side of the body with the fist closed, holding a ribbon, an Egyptian characteristic seen again and again since the Old Kingdom. The left arm, in contrast, is slightly bent and extended forward, holding a classical emblem, a cornucopia. This is decorated with floral and vegetal elements.
Her rather idealized face has almost spherical, wide-open eyes, a narrow nose with a wide bridge and small lips. Some similar pieces, like those conserved in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, show a name inscribed in a cartouche. Others have faces which, while not definitive depictions of a real queen, bear a close relationship to coins of the period, thus making it possible to attribute a piece as a depiction of a certain person.
The hair or wig is styled in locks of different thicknesses and height which fall vertically.
Sculptures which represent queens of the period have enough specific character for them to be considered to form a class of its own within Ptolemaic art. They were destined to be placed in temples as offerings to the gods, but so that they could be seen by the public. Many examples of these have been found, and they have been rendered in a variety of materials such as marble, faience, granite, basalt and other dark stones. All of them are characterised by the same iconographic elements as can be seen here, with more or less variety in the details.
