Egypt, Late Dynastic Period, 26th to 31st Dynasty, ca. 664 to 332 BCE. A cast-leaded-bronze figure of Osiris, the god of the underworld, standing atop an integral rectangular plinth. His peaceful countenance is defined by ovoid eyes with elongated corners, a broad nose, and a plaited false beard. His Atef crown bears a pair of broad ostrich feathers and a frontal uraeus cobra with a pair of ram horns at its base identifying him as a king. The god of the afterlife & resurrection stands in mummiform with fused legs while holding his signature flagellum and short-handled heka scepter in his hands. Size: 1" W x 3.75" H (2.5 cm x 9.5 cm)
Provenance: private Orange County, California, USA collection; ex-Phillip Mitry collection, noted dealer in Cairo, Egypt until about 1951 when he emigrated to the United States
