The piece I choose to do for my research paper is called “Wadjet”. It is an Egyptian piece of art. Wadjet was the protectress of the king and the tutelary deity of Lower Egypt. The sculpture is from the 26th dynasty.
The piece is a votive figure. The Egyptian iconography has gods that were shown with human torsos and animal heads. It was probably left in temples as a form of offering to the gods.

the scholars of the later period of Egypt rather than that of the elder Egyptian time period. This piece would have been either during or after the new kingdom because it was during the 26th dynasty.
I enjoyed viewing this piece because it was a piece of Egyptian art that I had never seen before. I have always enjoyed viewing Egyptian art and it surprised me how much I had learned after viewing this piece.
