AN EGYPTIAN POLYCHROME MUMMY MASK
ROMAN PERIOD, CIRCA 1ST CENTURY A.D.
With a white-painted face, suggesting that this was a woman's mask, blue and black painted eyes, eyebrows and cosmetic lines, the nostrils drilled, the contours of the face naturalistically modelled, wearing a multi-strand collar and a tripartite wig, blue in front, red in back, the top of the head painted with a facing vulture, perhaps the goddess Mut, with outstretched wings, legs, and tail, 11 7/8in. (30.2cm.) high
