Description
	GlobalEgMus web page: Statuette of a carpenter (?) The statuette represents a kneeling man with its pegged arms bent in the elbows; the right fist is clenched, the left arm is lost below the elbow. The man wears a wig covering his ears and a knee-long garment; a beard is shown as a painted strip on his jaw. The body is painted red, the whites and the garment are white, the wig, eyebrows, eyelids, pupils and beard are black. The statuette may be an image of a carpenter; at least a carpenter holding an adze is represented in the same posture in the model workshop from the tomb of Meketre. Height= 22 (cm) Note For an analogous statuette of a carpenter from the tomb of Meketre see H.E.Winlock, Models of Daily Life of Ancient Egypt from the tomb of Meket-Re at Thebes. Cambridge (Mass.), 1955, pl.21: 29. Preservation: The right arm below the elbow, left leg and nose are lost. Pigments are partly lost, the surface is cracked.
