Selections in Egyptian Art: AUGUST 2015
|
This month we turn our attention to a beautiful array of artifacts from the Egyptian Collection. Our spotlight
is on a stunning relief featuring a bust of Ptah. Roughly 16" inches square, inscribed with glyphs, and carved in deep relief this is a breath-taking and dynamic piece that would surely add to any distinguished collection. Also presented this month from our UK and UAE galleries we have a double sided limestone plaque with a depiction of a falcon and a portrait head and a mesmerizing sarcophagus fragment depicting a head. For additional information, images, and details on any of these pieces please click on the images below. |
