Descrizione : A group of 3 small Egyptian clay figures, c. 4th-1st Century BC. The first a small head of a man with very pronounced facial features and detailed facial lines, H: 5.7 cm. He is wearing a headband and head shape and the angle of the neck are very similar to those seen in Amarna sculpture. The second figure appears to be a fragment of a monkey resting its head on its hand, probably a Barbary Ape which were brought to Egypt to be kept in colonies by temples where they were considered to be vessels that could be inhabited by the gods, H: 7.9 cm. The third figure appears to be a votive figure of an animal, probably a ram, H: 6.2 cm. With its strange shape it could have been a sling bullet decorated as an animal. Ex property from the collection of Joseph Klein (1899-1987), New York City. Mr. Klein sought out and acquired these souvenirs as part of his vast collecting interests.
