A Fragmentary Egyptian Red Granite head of Amenhotep III, 18th Dynasty, reign of Amenhotep III, 1390-1353 B.C. Measuring at a height of 24.4 cm, this fragment is from a statue of the Egyptian King, Amenhotep III, the statue was made bigger than the actual size of the King. The details of this sculpture captured are his full lips, broad nostrils, almond-shaped eye with prominent upper lid folded over the lower at the outer corner, and thick arched tapering eyebrow in relief, a small part of the nemes-headcloth and ceremonial beard remaining, the beard-strap incised. It was scanned at Christie’s auction house and was previously owned by Sotheby’s Auction House where it sold there for 1,330,000 USD (883,193 GBP) when predicted to be worth only 150,000 — 250,000 USD (99,608 - 166,014 GBP). It is estimated to be worth 4 million GBP today.
