Head of a Woman New KingdomEgypt
Description
Object Label: The shape of this statue’s headdress, though fragmentary, indicates that the subject is a non-royal woman. Her image has considerable delicacy and charm, but the figure is not a portrait. Her tapered face, large eyes, slightly raised eyebrows, and wide, up-curved mouth are all stylistic hallmarks of sculptures made under Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. Caption: Head of a Woman, ca. 1479–1425 B.C.E.. Limestone, 2 1/2 x 2 3/4 in. (6.4 x 7 cm). Brooklyn Museum, Gift of the Ernest Erickson Foundation, Inc., 86.226.36. (Photo: Brooklyn Museum)
