Statue of Bastet as a Cat

Hollow cast, elegantly proportioned, with naturalistic details, depicted seated with its forepaws together, its tail curving forward around the proper right side, the head with alert erect ears, both pierced for attachment of now-missing earrings, the almond-shaped convex eyes with defined lids, the bridge of the nose ridged, the nostrils indented, with rectangular tenons below. 

Ptolemaic Period, ca. 305-30 BC. Now in the Private Collection.
