A small dark bronze/metal statuette shows a seated or standing nude child figure with a head resembling Horus (side-lock and winged/crowned child attributes are not fully clear).

The object is a small, dark, metal statuette with a human-like child body in a front-facing pose. The figure has large facial features and a head with a short, stylized wig/lock on the side; the arms are positioned near the torso, with one hand raised toward the chest and the other bent downward. The figure appears nude with simplified musculature and wears a broad collar and a patterned beaded/rope-like belt at the waist. Legs are slender and the stance suggests a seated/standing-on-base posture; a rounded base is visible at the feet. No clear inscriptions or cartouches are visible on the body or base. The background is a plain light surface with a white foam support behind the figure. The catalogue description specifies a child Horus seated; the image broadly matches a child-like Horus figure but the exact seated posture and specific Horus attributes are not fully diagnostic from this single view.
