EGYPTIAN PAINTED LIMESTONE USHABTI OF SA-ASET.
New Kingdom, 19th Dynasty, Ca. 1292 - 1190 BC. A limestone ushabti with extraordinary original pigment preserved, featuring black-painted hieroglyphics inscribed vertically around its legs on a yellow ground. The figure stands in mummiform with fused legs and holds red-painted tools intended to help with agricultural work in the afterlife: a pick and hoe in crossed arms, and a braided rope carrying a bag over its left shoulder. The peaceful face exhibits slender, black-painted eyes, arching brows, a triangular nose, full lips embellished with red colour, and a tapered chin, all beneath a tripartite pale blue wig. For similar see: The British Museum, Object reference number 1915.0515.39.b EA41549. Reviewed by Simone Musso, consultant curator for Egyptian antiquities at the Stibbert Museum, Florence, Italy, member of the Nuri Archaeological Expedition. Provenance: Private UK collection; acquired on the French market in the 1970s. This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
