Description

Circa 664-332 BC, Late Dynastic Period


An Ancient Egyptian stone statuette depicting the god Osiris. He is shown seated in mummiform with a braided divine beard, an atef-crown, and a peaceful, idealised face. He is posed with the arms folded across the chest holding a crook and flail. Osiris is the most significant and important god in the Egyptian pantheon. He is known firstly as a god of fertility, then as a god of the underworld. In his role of lord of the underworld, he was associated with a pharaoh and is, thus, generally portrayed as a deceased pharaoh, as seen on this figure. This very important example was exhibited at Kresge Art Gallery, Michigan State University, 1985 to 2002. Published: J. Eisenberg, Art of the Ancient World, vol XXII (2011), no.158
