This sculpture came to light during the clearing of a Theban tomb belonging to Amenmose, who was the Royal Scribe of the Altar of the Two Lands. The name of the tomb owner does not appear on this bust, which depicts his father, Pa-en-djerty.
The face of the bust has a somewhat empty expression and it bears a faint incised line between the upper eyebrow and eyelid. This is stylistically consistent with other statues from the initial two decades of Ramesses the Second's reign. The tripatite wig, which this figure wears, has the style of the Old Kingdom. |
