A wonderfully preserved head from an Egyptian Mummy

Item Details

Description

A wonderfully preserved head from an Egyptian Mummy, New Kingdom, c. 1570 - 1075 BC. The mummification technique used here exemplifies the finest traditions of New Kingdom procedures. The features of the regal looking face are perfectly detailed, the fine linen still tightly wrapped and exuding the scent of the anointment oils. If not a royal, which will take further research, it can be said with great assurance that this is the head of a high official. Offered in a mahogany display stand with a Plexiglas cover. Roughly 8 1/2 in x 7 in (21.6cm x 17.8cm). Head in very stable condition, tight wrappings and attached tufts of hair. A significantly inferior mummified head last sold at Heritage for over $31,000. Our lot is a much finer representation of the finest form of mummification.. In the 1700 and 1800's mummies were sought out by medical schools for research, dissection and curiosity. Ex University of Edinburgh Medical College.
