Statuette of Osiris
A slender bronze figure of Osiris stands on a square plinth, wrapped in a tight mummiform garment with hands crossed over the chest. A tall atef crown with feathered plumes rises above the head, and the surface shows green patina. The figure is shown frontally against a plain grey studio backdrop.
Look closer: The cast-bronze base shows green patina and the figure's crossed arms are partly hidden by the garment folds.
