Seated figure of Isis suckling Harpocrates (identifiable with the so-called ‘Isis lactans’ motif). The goddess wears a hathoric crown consisting of a solar disc between cow horns, broken at the tips, with a uraeus on the forehead. She has a tripartite wig decorated with vertical lines. She wears a long garment reaching the ankles. Isis brings her right hand to her left breast, while with her left hand she supports the head of Harpocrates. The feet rest on a trapezoidal base, from which a circular-section tenon projects down. The figure of Harpocrates is highly stylised; the god is depicted nude, wearing a skullcap with the side-lock of youth on the right side of his head. The arms are alongside the body and the legs are joined. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
