A painted, mummy-shaped funerary figure stands on a rectangular base, with a human face and stylized ceremonial clothing covering the body.

The image shows a small, full-standing funerary figure with a painted head and elongated, mummiform body. The face is front-facing with dark eyebrows and eyes, a straight nose, and a neutral mouth. The figure wears a broad, gold- and red-toned striped collar/pectoral with layered bands and bead-like detailing across the chest. The torso includes additional painted bands and a central circular/oval motif near the collar area. The arms appear crossed over the chest, indicated by horizontal/diagonal painted elements. The lower body is painted in red and white with a large central panel and surrounding bands; the legs end in red-painted feet. The figure stands on a two-part rectangular plinth/base. No clearly legible inscriptions, cartouches, or Greek/Coptic/Arabic text are visible in this view. The style is consistent with a Late Period–Ptolemaic Egyptian funerary object, though the specific named figure (Imseti) cannot be confirmed from the visible attributes alone.
