Ancient Egyptian Wood Carved Funerary Burial Mask Antiq

Item Details

Description

Ancient Egyptian Wood Carved Funerary Burial Mask Antiquity Circa 350 BC Ptolemaic Period Decorated with Pitch and White Pigment

In Egyptian art, black (kem) symbolized death, appropriate for the Eye of Horus, an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, royal power and good health, decorating the face on this death mask. The white (hedj) pigment, would have symbolized the scared, or pure.

The provenance of this piece is an Italian gallerist who owned an antique shop near the Spanish Steps in Rome, and is now deceased. An American translator and vocal performing arts artist brokered items in the US for him in the 1960s, and this was among the remaining pieces she either purchased from him or had gifted to her for her personal collection.

Approximate Dimensions: approximately 9 1/4 inches high x 10 inches wide (ear to ear) by 4 inches thick (to tip of nose)
