Group of two Osiris statuettes

Group of two standing, mummiform figures of Osiris, wearing a tight-fitting dress. They both are wearing an atef-crown with a solar disc, and a false beard. The arms are bent and the fists, resting side by side on the chest, hold the nekhekh and heqa-sceptres. The two figures are joined at the arms and at the feet, through a small rectangular base. The figures have a suspension loop behind the neck. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
