Head (Egyptian?)
 

It has long been kept in the family is such a head here .

Itself not an expert , so please give :
- What are they like the product ?
- Who it could be ( like once said that "the head of the Egyptian ")?

Dimensions refer to the line. Weight is not very large . Covered with brown ( in light of the flash for some reason, red) paint. Gray powder on top - long-term dust .

A strange thing.

Terracotta?

Do not like it.
The impression is that this cast.

You are absolutely pravy.Eto head the Egyptian.
 What you might see strange here ... Plain plaster cast of original sculpture, which is unknown in a row .. 100th .... or 10000th .. Toned under terracotta ? or a stone . ? ? In the face visible seams on the joints of forms, but on the inner side of the tracks drip liquid plaster ... such heads , busts of Greek gods or Roman emperors, or even God knows whom, in many huduchilischah or institutions.

Thank you, I never expected it to plaster ( painted plus a layer of dust ) and that this " student's copy."

Can someone tell me , what was the original? If this huduchilische , you probably copied from something known . ( I would like to make sure that the "original intact " and finally settle down ... :)>)

Who knows from what is done, and what kept the original museum in the world of ancient sculpture, if it is really old.
