Photograph of a small seated male figure (human statue) with a wig and arms folded across the torso.
The image shows a single sculpted figure seated with legs drawn up and the torso upright, arms folded and hands resting on the front, against a plain studio-like background. The figure has a stylized head with a headdress/wig that covers the top and sides of the head and a prominent face. The lower body appears simplified and merges into the seat/block. No clearly legible hieroglyphs or inscriptions are visible on the body or base in this photograph. The museum catalogue identifies the object as black granite and titled “Man Seated on the Ground”; the photograph’s dark, polished stone surface is consistent with black granite. No royal name cartouches are visible, and no specific deity attributes can be confidently identified from the image alone.
