Belonging to Dynasty XIX, this seated statue of the queen is an epitome of art and craft that has withstood the test of time. Despite its damaged state, this studio shot captures the essence and grandeur of Queen Merit-Amon's likeness. The sculpture depicts her waist up, holding an unknown object in her hands. Against a striking blue background, every intricate detail on this vertical carving becomes even more pronounced. Dressed in a period costume befitting her royal status, Queen Merit-Amon's headdress adds an air of regality to her already majestic presence.
