• 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.

• FINE EGYPTIAN BRONZE MUMMIFORM
  FINE EGYPTIAN BRONZE MUMMIFORM OSIRIS**First Time At Auction** Egypt, Late Dynastic period, 25th to 26th Dynasty, ca. 712 to 525 BCE. A remarkable leaded bronze figure of the mummiform Osiris, god of the Underworld. This would likely have been a votive figure, perhaps made to be kept in a wealthy home and prayed to, deposited in a temple as an offering, or, most likely, kept for ritual with other metallic objects by priests. He wears a tall crown, symbolic of a pharaoh's rule over Upper Egypt, with a frontal uraeus. In his hands, which he holds close together at his chest, he holds a flagellum and a short-handled heka scepter - both symbols of authority and kingship, showing Osiris's close connection with the pharaoh and his role as Ruler of the Dead. His round face displays almond eyes, large ears, and thick lips below a petite nose, with a pleated false beard strapped to his chin. Incised decoration gives further detail to his tools, his crown, and his beard. Size: 2.1" W x 5.7" H (5.3 cm x 14.5 cm); 7.1" H (18 cm) on included custom stand.

• EGYPTIAN STONE FIGURE - WINGED ISIS
  EGYPTIAN STONE FIGURE - WINGED ISIS PROTECTING OSIRIS**Originally Listed At $2500** Ancient Egypt, Late Period, 26th Dynasty, ca. 590 to 530 BCE. An impressive siltstone statue of Osiris, the god of fertility, agriculture, and the afterlife, protected by the wings of his sister and lover, the goddess Isis. Standing in his traditional mummiform pose with a feathered atef-crown, Osiris wears a false beard while grasping a crook and flail in each hand which lie across his chest. Isis's plumed wings envelop his body, her arms resting beside each of his shoulders, supporting his image, as her feet are shown behind. Remains of a petite plaque can be seen in front of Osiris, which likely previously spelled out his name in hieroglyphs. During the 26th Dynasty, donors seeking favors presented votive statues of deities in temples. The artist's great skill is evident in the smooth, rounded forms and the level of detail carved into the hard stone. This statue was likely created as an offering to Isis. Size: 2.9" L x 1.4" W x 6.3" H (7.4 cm x 3.6 cm x 16 cm) Isis is often associated with the funerary cults and the afterlife, as she was thought to guard the liver of a deceased person at the time of judgment. She is also known as a protector of children. In addition to being revered as the ideal mother and wife, Isis was revered as the patroness of magic and nature, a supporter of sinners, slaves, and artisans as well as a friend to rulers and the wealthy. According to the University of Southern California West Semitic Research Project, "Isis, along with her husband and brother, Osiris, was most often associated with the funerary cult and the afterlife. Together with three other goddesses, she was thought to guard the internal organs of a deceased person at the time of judgment. Isis, Osiris, and Horus were especially worshipped at the city of Abydos, but reverence for all of them was widespread." Cf. British Museum (EA1162), the Walters Art Museum (22.199), and the Israel Museum (97.63.60).
