Bas-relief of Osiris

 Bas-relief of Osiris

This fragment of relief comes from the chapel that Amenhotep I had constructed for his father Amosis at Abydos. It represents the god Osiris dressed in the white crown of Upper Egypt. In his hands, he holds three sceptres: the flagellum, the was-sceptre and the heqa-sceptre (crook). The fragment, which contains three hieroglyphic inscriptions, still bears several traces of colours.
