As per the custom it is comprised of wood, with remains of gesso-painting and a gilded linen-backed surface. The striking inlaid eyes are in fact from a later date of manufacture, but remain historically correct. There are three attachment holes to the rear which would have held wooden pegs fixing it to the body of the sarcophagus. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"monumentgalleryla","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44435212206332,"sku":"MS.0036","price":20000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/7990\/4764\/files\/MS.0036.jpg?v=1687053922"},{"product_id":"egyptian-painted-wood-mummy-mask","title":"Egyptian Painted Wood Mummy Mask","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin: \u003c\/strong\u003eEgypt\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCirca:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan class=\"chr-lot-section__accordion--text\"\u003eThird Intermediate Period, 22nd Dynasty, 945 BC to 712 BC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.5\" Height (29.2\u003cspan class=\"chr-lot-section__accordion--text\"\u003e cm)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMedium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wood\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"chr-lot-section__accordion--text\"\u003eFrom the lid of an anthropoid coffin, this beautiful wooden mummy mask is painted in bright pigment over a gessoed surface.  Yellow has been used for the skin tones of the face, black for the delineating features including the eye outlines, irises, brows, and cosmetic lines, while white is employed for the sclerae of the eyes. There is a black dot in between the brows, and the preserved portions of the broad wig are executed in alternating blue and yellow stripes. A fillet of red, yellow, white and blue runs horizontally above a section of blue that is embellished with yellow dots just above the forehead. Dowls can be found in the center and on both sides of the preserved portions of the wig. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"monumentgalleryla","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44435221545212,"sku":"MS.0037","price":35000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/7990\/4764\/files\/MS.0037.jpg?v=1687053786"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/7990\/4764\/collections\/HQ.0028.jpg?v=1660537237","url":"https:\/\/monumentgalleryla.com\/collections\/egyptian-art.oembed?page=4","provider":"monumentgalleryla","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
