Descrizione : Ancient Egypt, Third Intermediate Period, 21st to 25th Dynasty, ca. 1070 to 664 BCE. A lovely, mold-formed faience ushabti standing in mummiform atop an integral ovoid plinth and covered in a pale green glaze. The figure holds a pair of hoes delineated with mauve-hued pigment in crossed arms, and a similarly-colored seed bag is draped across the verso. A wide nose, full lips, almond-shaped eyes, and thin brows comprise the serene visage, and the top of the tripartite wig is adorned with a ring of mauve pigment. An inscribed column of painted hieroglyphic text denotes this figure as Pa-shery-en-Iset (literally The child of Isis), the second prophet of Amun. Custom museum-quality display stand included. Size: 1.875 W x 5.625 H (4.8 cm x 14.3 cm), 6 H (15.2 cm) on included custom stand. The following is excerpted from a letter by Dr. Campbell Price, Curator of Egypt and the Sudan, Manchester Museum, The University of Manchester in the UK, regarding this ushabti. It reads, After consultation with a colleague based near here in Manchester, I am able to tell you that the shabti depicts the 2nd Prophet of Amen, Pa-shery-en-Iset (lit: 'The child of Isis'), who was buried in Middle Egypt, at the site of Hermopolis, tomb no.2, found in 1926 (for further details, see the journal Annales du Service des Antiquities de l'Egypte no. 26, 1926, pp. 41-43). As so often, the finds from the tomb were split up and some entered the private art market - including this chap.
