About the Item

Large Plaster Cast: The Young King Amen-em-hat III €475 Add to Cart Description Large Portrait plaster cast from the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek (museum in Copenhagen, Denmark) of Egyptian King Amenemhat III, one of the most significant rulers of the Middle Kingdom (2050-1785 BCE). The figure is a 1:1 plaster reproduction of Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek's original, crafted in hand-painted plaster (material of the original: Greywacke). Origin of the original: Egypt, 1842-1795 BCE. Dimensions: H: 55 cm (including base) / W: 15 cm / D: 22 cm. Amenemhat III was one of the greatest pharaohs in Egypt’s history, ascending to the throne at around the age of 20. His facial features are preserved in a statue head that depicts the king as a young man wearing the crown of Upper Egypt. The crown, originally a conical “hat,” has been broken, and the king’s nose and ears have also suffered damage. This head is one of the most renowned works of art from ancient Egypt.
