Egyptian Royal hand fragment Sculpture reproduction art 8.5" www.Neo-Mfg.com Museum Reproduction Amarna art Size 10.75" Wide x 9.25" Tall Mold made from a print of the original work on display at the MMA MUSEUM INFO Last 2 PHOTOS ARE THE ORIGINAL IN THE MUSEUM. COLOR NOT AVAILABLE. SHOWN FOR REFERENCE ONLY Relief decoration in the Amarna temples included naturalistic details, such as this one, and transitory gestures that are unique in Egyptian art.

Period: New Kingdom, Amarna Period Dynasty: Dynasty 18 Reign: reign of Akhenaten Date: ca. 1353–1336 B.C. Geography: From Egypt; Probably from Middle Egypt, Hermopolis (Ashmunein; Kh
