Akhenaton, Nefertiti, and Three Daughters, from Amarna, Egypt, 18th Dynasty, 1353-1335 BCE. Limestone, 1' 1/4" high. Amarna period.
Provided rare intimate glimpse at royal family in a domestic setting. Family basks in the life-giving rays of Aton the sun disk. The rays only touch Nefertiti, the high priestess.
