Osiris statuette

Standing, mummiform figure, wearing a tight-fitting dress. He is wearing an atef-crown with ram horns and a false beard. The arms are bent and the fists, the right one positioned above the left and resting tightly on the torso, hold the nekhekh and the heqa-sceptres. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
