Description

A FINE ALABASTER FIGURE OF A MALE VOTARY, ARCHAIC CYPRUS STYLE

Expert’s note: While an ancient origin remains possible, if not likely—especially in light of the condition report—the piece cannot be dated with certainty due to the absence of precise comparative material.

Finely carved in the round, standing with the left arm extended close to the body, fist clenched, and the right arm bent, hand resting upon the chest. The figure wearing a long chiton with short sleeves and a himation draped over the bent right arm and part of the left shoulder. His face bearing a hieratic expression, marked by almond-shaped eyes, a slender nose, and full lips, framed by a finely carved pointed helmet. A short, slightly wavy lock of hair emerges at the nape, falling delicately over the shoulders.

Provenance: The collection of The Zelnik István Southeast Asian Gold Museum. Dr. István Zelnik, President of the Hungarian South and Southeast Asian Research Institute, is a former high-ranking Hungarian diplomat who spent several decades in Southeast Asia, building the largest known private collection of Asian art in Europe.
Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age, with ancient wear and natural age-related imperfections, including fissures and inclusions. Distinct traces of weathering and erosion, with occasional minute nicks, losses. The translucent stone of yellowish tones with russet veining and inclusions.

Weight: 567.6 g
