Das ist der Preis für die folgende Bewertung: Goddess Isis – Hathor

Beschreibung : Goddess Isis-Hator, Ancient Egypt, Late Antique, 664 - 323 BC. Bronze. In a perfect state of preservation. Provenance: Private collection of A. Fruitman, Brussels, Belgium. Acquired in the 1970s. Measurements: 20 cm high. Round sculpture of the Goddess Isis-Hator. Represented as a young woman, standing, with the canonical posture of the Egyptian deities, the left foot forward in a marching attitude, the right arm downwards next to the body, and the left arm forwards with the fist closed to hold the typical sceptre of the gods, the was sceptre. She is dressed in a long, tight-fitting dress that covers her from her shoulders to her ankles, although her breasts and navel are still visible. The attributes that allow the identification of the goddess are her characteristic hairstyle, a voluptuous triangular wig, which descends in front of her shoulders and down her back, revealing below her face only part of the menat necklace that she wears. The wig is decorated with incisions in the form of royal charges touched with sun discs, as well as a vulture's skin at the top, from which his head protrudes. On top of the skin is a crown composed of a circular base, very schematically formed by erect cobras, on which rest two long ostrich 'atef' feathers, together with a crown composed of two baca horns with a solar disc in the middle, an icon of the goddess Hathor. The piece bears strong similarities to other works in important art collections such as the Institut Français d'Archéologie Oriental. Cairo. 1905 (Figure 38.979) or the Musée du Louvre. Paris. (Figure E3637 and Figure N3808). Both Isis and Hathor were two of the most important goddesses in the Egyptian pantheon. In many of the representations they embody similar attributes and powers, which led to a syncretism between them, depending on the performance with which they were identified. The goddess Isis, according to the stories, was the daughter of Gueb and Nut, sister of Osiris, whose wife she was also considered to be. This piece was made using the lost-wax technique, a sculptural procedure in which a mould is first made from a prototype, traditionally carved in beeswax. The preliminary model is surrounded by a thick layer of soft material that solidifies, usually clay, once hardened, it is placed inside a furnace, which melts the wax figure, which comes out through specially created holes, and in its place molten metal is injected to take the exact shape of the model. To remove the final piece, the mould must be removed.
