Head of Priest Model 1

3D Model

Ptolemaic, about 50 BC Granodiorite

Photograph taken April 2018 while on temporary exhibit “Beyond the Nile” at the Getty Center, Los Angeles, CA.

From label: This bearded priest wears a diadem ornamented with a star. The gaunt face, furrowed brow, pursed lips, round eyes, and short hair impart a vivid appearance that eptiomizes the hybrid Greco-Egyptian style of the first century BC.
