The Global Egyptian Museum

The statuette represents a striding man with his right leg advanced. He wears a long garment and a wig covering his ears. The body is painted red, the whites and the garment are white, the wig, eyelids and pupils are black. The pegged arms are lost, but their traces on the paint demonstrate that the right arm was either stretched forward or upraised, while the left one might be lowered. This posture is characteristic of the statuettes of pilots placed on the prow of model boats.
