From the Museo Egizio record
Standing figure of Harpocrates, striding with left leg forward. The god is wearing the double crown, the lituus is missing. The red crown is decorated with the uraeus. A streamer descends from the crown on the upper back. Harpocrates has a decorated side-lock on the right side of the head, which ends with a curl on the shoulder. Harpocrates has a necklace with a pendant, which is not clearly visible. The left arm is at side, the hand is clenched in a fist. The right arm is bent, the hand is broken. It seems that the feet broke at the ankles and seem to have been recently repaired. The figure rests on a hollow rectangular base. The front and right sides of the base are inscribed. Two square tenons protrude from the base. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts. Dimensions: 5.5 cm x 20 cm x 7 cm. Museum location: Not on display. Image views available: 7.
