Isis-Aphrodite with Egyptian vulture cap
A green-brown bronze statuette shows a standing female figure in a long, clinging garment, one hand raised to her chest and the other arm held at her side. A small crested cap rises from her head, and the surface shows patinated wear. The figure stands on a broad, simple base against a plain grey backdrop.
Look closer: A small crested headdress ornament sits atop the figure's head, above the cap.
