Nose and Lips of Akhenaten
18th Dynasty, New Kingdom
Amarna Period
Found in the dumps south of the Sanctuary of the Great Aten Temple or in the Sanctuary itself, this fragment is attributed to Akhenaten. The inner corner of one eye is visible alongside the nose.
Although there is little to distinguish many representations of the king and the queen, particularly relatively early in the Amarna years, the particularly long line alongside the nose and lips and the sinuous upper lip support that identification.(Source: The Met Museum)
