EDITORS COMMENTS
This statue represents Kha, an architect and master craftsman during the New Kingdom's 18th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, around 1400 BC. The figure, now housed in the Egyptian Museum in Turin, Italy, was discovered in the tomb of Kha at Deir el-Medina, near Thebes. Carved from polychromed wood, the intricately detailed sculpture showcases Kha's regal status, with his arms crossed over his chest and a crown atop his head. The interior of the tomb, which dates back to 1400 BC, was a testament to the wealth and prestige of its occupant. Kha's statue, a portrait of the man himself, was likely placed in the tomb to ensure his continued presence and protection in the afterlife. The use of polychromy, the application of colored pigments to the wood, further enhanced the statue's lifelike appearance and grandeur. Kha's role as an architect and craftsman was crucial during the New Kingdom, a period of great artistic and architectural achievements in Egyptian history. His statue stands as a testament to the artistic prowess and cultural significance of this ancient civilization. The statue's journey from its original tomb in Egypt to its current home in Turin, Italy, is a reminder of the enduring allure and historical importance of Egyptian art.
