EGYPTIAN WOODEN CROUCHING ANUBIS
EGYPTIAN WOODEN CROUCHING ANUBIS GUARDIAN (AS JACKAL)**First Time At Auction**
Egypt, Late Dynastic to Ptolemaic period, ca. 664 to 30 BCE. A regal crouching wooden Anubis guardian depicted in his natural jackal form. The sculpture sits in a perky but pensive position with raised ears, folded hind legs, and outstretched tail. Extensive remains of gesso and jet-black pigment are visible along each part of the body, with contrasting white eyes. Artists in ancient Egyptian times depicted examples of Anubis as a recumbent canine to show guardianship or attentiveness in homes, sacred sites, and tombs. Wild jackals are naturally attracted to human burial sites - bodies that were buried in shallow graves were easily dug up and often eaten by these canines. Despite their scavenging, Egyptians associated jackals with the deceased and regarded them as protectors and guides to the afterlife. Size: 15.5" L (39.4 cm)
Wooden representations of sacred animals and deities were often placed into Egyptian tombs belonging to high-status individuals. Similar figures were also made to grace furniture and other everyday objects which were sometimes placed into the grave as well. Anubis, based on the African golden jackal, is a god associated with mummification and the afterlife and is usually depicted as either a canine or a man with a canine head. Like many Egyptian deities, the role of Anubis changed over time. During the First Dynasty, he was a protector of graves and an embalmer. In the Middle Kingdom period, Osiris claimed Anubis' role as lord of the underworld, but Anubis continued to weigh the hearts of the dead against a feather to determine if they were deserving of eternal life.

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN FIGURE OF OSIRIS
ANCIENT EGYPTIAN FIGURE OF OSIRIS
EGYPT, LATE PERIOD, 664 - 332 B.C. bronze, gold and lapis lazuli, standing deity in typical mummiform pose, holding a crook and flail in his crossed hands, wearing the atefcrown with frontal uraeus and incised plaited false beard, the face with inlaid quartz eyes and lapis brows, raised on a bespoke mount20.2cm tallPrivate family collection, Switzerland, since at least 1940, the piece is accompanied by a supporting letter confirming the provenance.Note:Osiris is most often represented as a shrouded mummy, emphasizing his connection with the dead. He holds a flail and a short shepherd’s crook, insignia associated with Egyptian kingship, and wears a long, braided beard, emblematic of divinity. On the front of his tall crown is a uraeus, a cobra ready to spit fire at his enemies. The horns may link him with the sun god, who often appears as a ram-headed man at the end of the day and during the night.By the first millennium B.C., statues and statuettes of Osiris were offered in profusion, reflecting both the importance of the god and a shift in how the ancient Egyptians performed certain rituals. Some of the places where statues of Osiris have been found can be identified as temples and shrines belonging to him, but they have also been found as offerings in contexts where explanations are not evident.
