Photograph of the upper portion of an Egyptian shabti figure, showing a seated/standing upper body with a wig/head covering and arms folded across the chest.

The image shows a small sculpted figure in light blue/green, likely a glazed material. Only the upper part and head/torso are preserved; the lower section is broken away, revealing a chipped, lighter substrate at the break. The figure has a rounded, close-fitting wig and a striped head covering or headdress. The arms are positioned across the chest with hands held in front of the body, consistent with shabti iconography. A dark incised facial area and simplified facial features (eyes/nose/mouth) are visible. No legible hieroglyphs, cartouches, or additional carved text are visible on the visible surface in this photo. A modern metal support rod and base are present in the foreground, indicating museum display rather than original context.
