Machine-generated from the object's image on Jul 2026. Not curatorial; treat deities, names, and signs below as the model's best reading, not authority.

Small bronze figurine showing a seated, elongated male-animal figure with a long snout and open hands/forepaws raised in front.

The object is a bronze (dark brown/green patina) figurine posed standing/squatting on a rectangular black support. The figure has a long, pointed snout/head profile and slender body, with both forearms raised forward; the left forearm appears extended horizontally while the right is slightly bent. No clear animal-specific attributes besides the snout are visible in this image. The head lacks clearly readable inscriptional elements, and there are no legible hieroglyphs/Greek/Coptic/Arabic texts visible on the artifact or the support. The catalogue title refers to Anubis; however, the image is too general to confirm diagnostic Anubis iconography (e.g., jackal ears/jackal body details) with certainty. No cartouches or royal names are visible.
