The forward position of the left forearm indicates that this statue was originally a naophoros – an official or private individual who held a shrine, statue, or divine emblem out in front of him. According to S. Schoske and D. Wildung, op. cit., “The absence of surface polish, the unfinished framing of the ears, and the imprecise execution of the eyebrows and cosmetic lines at the temples” suggest that this figure was unfinished in antiquity. For a similar naophoros, also with the characteristic bag wig of the 26th Dynasty, see the one in the British Museum, inv. no. EA41517, no. 132 in E. Russmann, Eternal Egypt: Masterworks of Ancient Art from the British Museum.
