About this asset

A gilded Romano-Egyptian funerary mask featuring a naturalistic male face covered in gold leaf, adorned with a polychrome beaded collar and traditional Egyptian hieroglyphic and figural scenes painted on the chest panel. The headdress incorporates Pharaonic motifs including sun discs and cobras (uraeus), blending Greco-Roman portraiture with ancient Egyptian funerary iconography — a hallmark of Egypt's syncretic cultural period between the 1st century BC and 3rd century AD. The artifact is housed in the Egyptian Museum on Mariette Street, Tahrir Square, Cairo, one of the world's foremost collections of ancient Egyptian antiquities.
