An Egyptian Polychrome Wood Figure of Ptah-Soker-Osiris, late Ptolemaic/early Roman Period, circa 100 B.C.-50 A.D.

the god of resurrection standing on a long rectangular base with column of inscription, and wearing a broad banded collar, beard, and tripartite wig surmounted by a crown of horns with plumes and sun-disk, the blank column in front surmounted by recumbent Anubis, the base containing fragments of ancient linen perhaps once associated with a corn Osiris.

acquired in Egypt between 1957 and 1961
American private collection, 1961-2015

As shown; note small paint losses. The crown is attached with a modern wood peg and the feathers are glued to the horns. Some re-touching in areas is possible, as is often the case with objects of this kind. The face and one strand of the collar may be re-painted.
