Lot 832
Handsome Wood Mummy Mask. Egypt, Late New Kingdom or Third Intermediate Period, c. 1200-750 BC. About half life-size, the portrait likely of a woman with idealized features, with a full, generous mouth that is indented at the corners, and with a hint of an almost enigmatic smile. The eyes sfumato-like, rather than overtly rendered. Overall, very fine condition for wood of this age. Height: 6"; on custom plexiglass stand. An eye-catching display piece.
Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,500.
