This colossal sized head and shoulder bust depicts Hatshepsut, the female pharoah who came to the throne of Egypt in 1478BC and reigned for about 20 years. She is considered to be one of Egypt's most successful rulers. This sculpture was part of a sphinx, which was lost many years ago. There were many other sphinxes made to depict her during her reign that stood in Hatshepsut's mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahri. This one in particular was smashed into many fragments at the order of Hatshepsut's nephew and successor Thutmose III and dumpted in a quarry close by. This sculpture is on permanent display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
Soap and candle versions of this sculpture are available in the iMakr store!
