| Description | |
| CIWA Virtual collection: This large wooden statuette portrays a servant carrying offerings for the deceased. Her hair is trimmed just below the ears. Her right arm, raised to steady the load on her head, enhances her bare-breasted figure. She holds in her left hand a leach, zigzagging as snake and attached to a small horned goat. A simple drawstring just under her breast holds her straight linen skirt. Height 36.9cm. (14.4 in.) - 490 g. (17.3 oz.) | |
