Detailed description

Splendid Ushabti of Tutankhamun

Since the Middle Kingdom, the deceased received small figurines in their graves to carry out work for them in the afterlife. In the 18th Dynasty, this custom has been incorporated when decorating the royal tombs. Out of the 413 ushabtis in Tutankhamun's tomb, a small group stands out in size and artistic design. Our example shows the king with the Blue Crown and the insignia crosier and frond in his crossed hands. The inscription reproduces the 6 chapters from the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
Original: Egyptian Museum, Cairo. Tomb treasure of Tutankhamun. Egypt, New Kingdom, 18th Dynasty, c. 1335 BC.

Polymer ars mundi museum replica cast by hand; with gold leaf overlay (partial gold-plating), height with pedestal 55 cm.
