EGYPTIAN NEW KINGDOM GRANITE
EGYPTIAN NEW KINGDOM GRANITE USHABTI, EX-PHILIP MITRYAncient Egypt, New Kingdom, 18th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1550 to 1077 BCE. Wow! A truly remarkable granite ushabti incised with a central column of finely preserved hieroglyphs likely stating a prayer with the name of the deceased. The ancient figure wears a thick collar necklace and grasps a hoe in each hand - both of which were new traditions for ushabti beginning in the 18th dynasty. Standing in a classic mummiform pose with fused legs and protruding feet, he holds both arms against the sides and crosses both hands atop the sternum. The haunting countenance peers forward with characteristic elongated eyes, a broad nose, and fleshy lips held closed, all flanked by a pair of sizable ears. A tripartite wig surmounts the head, with bands tying the ends of 2 parts that rest on the chest. An awe-inspiring example of exemplary Egyptian funerary artistry! Size: 2.5" W x 6.8" H (6.4 cm x 17.3 cm); 8.4" H (21.3 cm) on included custom stand.
Ushabti dolls are figures shaped like adult male or female mummies wearing traditional ancient Egyptian headdresses. The ancient Egyptians believed that after they died, their spirits would have to work in the "Field of Reeds" owned by the god of the underworld, Osiris. As a result, they are frequently depicted with arms crossed, holding picks and hoes, with baskets on their backs. This meant that the task of agricultural labor was required by all members of society, from workers to pharaohs. The wealthier nobility in Egyptian society were able to have ushabti made of faience, though wood was a more economical option for members of lower classes. However, the overall size of this example suggests that this was meant for an individual of importance.
Provenance: private Orange, California, USA collection, by descent from the noted Egyptian antiquarian Philip Mitry, who emigrated from Egypt to the US in 1951

FINE EGYPTIAN NEW KINGDOM LIMESTONE
FINE EGYPTIAN NEW KINGDOM LIMESTONE USHABTIAncient Egypt, New Kingdom, 18th to 20th Dynasty, ca. 1550 to 1077 BCE. An ancient Egyptian ushabti, carved from a single piece of limestone standing with fused legs and feet as a mummiform figure with hands crossed atop the chest. The serene countenance is composed of almond-shaped eyes, a broad nose, full lips, and smooth rounded cheeks and chin, all beneath a simple tripartite wig with cupped ears at the sides. Ushabti were placed in tombs as grave goods, created to do manual labor for the deceased in the afterlife. As a result, they are frequently depicted with arms crossed, holding agricultural tools, and baskets. This figure is of a larger size with excellent preservation to the face! Size: 3" W x 8.1" H (7.6 cm x 20.6 cm); 8.4" H (21.3 cm) on included custom stand
Ushabti were first introduced in the Middle Kingdom as substitutes for the mummy in case it was destroyed. During the Second Intermediate Period inscribed wooden figures called shawabtis (after the Egyptian word for wood, shawab) began to be placed in tombs. During the New Kingdom, ushabti assumed a new role as servant figures for the deceased. They were now depicted with agricultural equipment. By the Third Intermediate Period, the number of shabti placed in the tomb was set at 401 (365 workers and 36 overseers). During the Late Period the tomb figures became known as ushabtis ('answerers'), these figures represented servants who would magically answer when called upon to perform agricultural duties for the Pharaoh (in the form of Osiris) in the afterlife. Their main function was to ensure the individual's comfort and freedom from daily labor in the next life.
