Statuette of a Scribe

Statuette of a Scribe. Dimensions: H. 12.5 cm (4 15/16 in). Dynasty: Dynasty 18. Reign: reign of Amenhotep II-Amenhotep III. Date: ca. 1391-1353 B.C..
This statuette depicts a seated scribe with a scroll of papyrus across his lap. His kilt is drawn tightly around his knees to create a flat surface on which to write. He would have held a reed brush in his right hand and would have unrolled the papyrus with his left hand. The deep wrinkles across his chest indicate that he is no longer a young man.
