Anubis Mask
Mask of Anubis, god of death, mummification, embalming, the afterlife, cemeteries, tombs, and the Underworld. Part of a ritual costume worn by a priest, painted cartonnage. Late Period, ca. 664-332 BC. Now in the Royal Pump Room Museum, Harrogate, North Yorkshire.
Cult Statue of Amenhotep I
Pharaoh Amenhotep I was celebrated as the founder of the village of Deir el-Medina and divinized by the inhabitants of the settlement. This is why he is depicted as a divine figure in this statue. The statue is carved in limestone so pure and clear that it seems painted.
It is an extremely pure and homogeneous limestone that lends itself particularly to the art of sculpture and being painted, as can be seen from the headgear and hieroglyphics.
New Kingdom, early 18th Dynasty, reign of Amenhotep I, ca. 1525-1504 BC. Now in the Egyptian Museum of Turin. Cat. 1372
