Machine-generated from the object's image on Jul 2026. Not curatorial; treat deities, names, and signs below as the model's best reading, not authority.

A small green-glazed faience statuette depicts a nude or minimally dressed childlike figure with one arm raised to the face and the other bent at the chest.

The image shows a single, front-facing standing figurine with a rounded head and simplified facial features. The figure appears childlike and holds one hand up near the mouth/cheek area, while the other arm is bent inward toward the torso. The body is slender and modeled in a blocky, stylized way; there are no clear inscriptions or surrounding iconographic elements such as a club or associated attributes visible in the photograph. The surface is green with light speckling and wear consistent with glazed ceramic/faience. No cartouches or explicit hieroglyphic text can be read, and there is no visible Greek, Coptic, or Arabic script. The overall subject aligns only generally with the catalogue’s identification of a child god, but the specific “club of Herakles” attribute is not clearly visible.
