Osiris

A small dark bronze statuette of the god Osiris stands on a white block base. He wears the tall atef crown with side plumes, and his mummiform body is wrapped tightly, arms crossed over the chest holding the royal crook and flail. Fine detail survives in the face and crown.

Look closer: Patches of green patina across the lower robe, visible near the base.
