这尊大型实心青铜铸成的女性立像描绘的是埃及女神奈芙蒂斯,即“家主”,她站在一个一体式底座上,身穿紧身连衣裙,头戴三重假发,假发正面饰有蛇形图案,假发上方饰有蛇形图案,假发周围环绕着蛇形图案,双臂放在身体两侧。她被安放在一个早期的老式木制底座上,底座上贴着金色标签:“奈芙蒂斯,伊西斯之妹”。
奈芙蒂斯(埃及语:N bt-l;wt)是埃及神话中赫利奥波利斯九柱神之一,是努特和盖布的女儿。作为死者的四位守护神之一,奈芙蒂斯是奥西里斯家族的一员,是伊西斯和奥西里斯(她为奥西里斯生下了阿努比斯)的姐妹和助手,也是混乱之神、谋杀奥西里斯的凶手和兄弟赛特的姐妹妻子。由于她们都是木乃伊的保护者,因此她通常与姐姐伊西斯一起参加葬礼。
