EGYPTIAN LIMESTONE SCULPTOR'S MODELEGYPTIAN LIMESTONE SCULPTOR'S MODEL OF A LEFT FOOTEgypt, Late Dynastic to Ptolemaic Period, ca. 664 to 30 BCE. A remarkable sculpture of a left foot that was used as a sculptor's model, skillfully hand-carved from creamy white limestone. Resting on a rectangular plinth, the elegant foot presents a slender form and elongated phalanges with both the second and third toes being longer than the first; a quality named the "Greek foot," which was idealized in Greek sculpture and continued to be the aesthetic standard through Roman art and up to the Modern era, as seen in the Statue of Liberty. The phalanges are fairly widely spaced as the foot lays flat, exhibiting no noticeable arch. A rounded heel is displayed at the back, where the foot rises to a nicely formed ankle with a gently risen talus bone and narrow heel cord. Note the artist's careful attention to detail as evident in the recessed nailbeds. Size: 6" L x 2.1" W x 2.7" H (15.2 cm x 5.3 cm x 6.9 cm)
A carved foot like this example may have served as a model for a larger sculpture, to teach apprentice sculptors how to replicate a master style, or to produce ushabti figures (small funerary statues for tombs). Though sculptors' models are typically difficult to date - with some being from the Amarna period of the 18th Dynasty when new forms of statuary came in - most known examples are from the Late Dynastic and Ptolemaic periods. The Egyptians were keen observers of fauna, with many different animals gracing their mythology, artwork, and hieroglyphs; however, anthropomorphic models were typically among the most challenging to carve accurately.
While sculptors' models appear to be from larger composite figures, their incomplete presentation could be an entirely separate item typology. Ancient Greek sculptural incompleteness was a generic form of presentation as the viewer could extrapolate who or what a sculpture was meant to represent. In contrast, the ancient Egyptians would view an incomplete votive work of art only as it was: part of a bird, a disembodied head, or in one instance the hind quarters of a lion. The smooth surface at the top of this foot indicates that it is a complete object by itself. According to Eric Young of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, "When we consider the Egyptian pieces as sculptors' models, however, their incompleteness is no longer disturbing, but entirely understandable. As is the case with unquestioned sculptors' models...the apprentice sculptor concentrated his energies on those portions of the figure that he found intriguing, or most difficult, and the master sculptor demonstrated the correct way to delineate a head…" ("Sculptors' Models or Votives? In Defense of a Scholarly Tradition." The Metropolitan Museum of Art Bulletin, March 1964, p. 255).
