This is a hand-sculpted pottery statue of the Egyptian God Bes. The statue is unpainted and in exquisite antique condition, featuring all of the classic design elements of this Egyptian deity, and would make an excellent inclusion to any ancient civilization art collection.
Bes was worshiped in ancient Egypt as the God of music, merriment, and childbirth. Bes was the protector of children, and depictions of him were frequently seen in the bedrooms of ancient Egyptian households.
This piece was made by local Egyptians for affluent visitors who traveled to Egypt on educational Grand Tours of various archaeologically significant sites between 1780-1920s; a time also known as the Egyptian Revival Period.
