A very fine sculptor's trial relief of a male torso in limestone. A master piece of Egyptian art. The fingers and finger nails carved with perfection.
Trial Relief's were used to teach artists in a small scale before they went on to carve at a larger scale and with compete figures on temples and monuments. They often depict just a certain part of the body, or animal. This is one of the finest we have even seen. A true piece of Egyptian art at its finest!
Ex Swiss collection
