Seated figure of Isis suckling Harpocrates (identifiable with the so-called ‘Isis lactans’ motif). The goddess is wearing a hathoric crown and a tripartite wig decorated with a vulture headdress. The goddess is wearing an ankle-length, tight-fitting dress. She brings her right hand to her left breast, while her left hand holds Harpocrates’ head. The feet rest on a thin rectangular base from which a tenon projects down. The god Harpocrates is sitting on Isis’ lap. The god is depicted naked with the side-lock on the right side of the head, which ends with a curl on the right shoulder and wearing a skullcap decorated with a stylised uraeus. Harpocrates has his arms at sides with hands open, the palms facing down. The legs are together. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
