Egyptian - Male Dwarf and Child - Walters 71533 - Right

description

Summary

A bearded dwarf with pudgy nose and elongated head covered with short curls is shown on his hands and knees holding a child. The child's hand is preserved on the left side of the face of the dwarf, but its arms and head are missing. There is an unnatural protrusion from the stomach of the dwarf.

A perforation from the back to the groin suggests that this piece may have been part of a mechanical toy.
