Arm Panel From a Ceremonial Chair of Thutmose IV (ca. 1400–1390 B.C.) | New Kingdom This wooden 𓇋𓅓𓏲𓆭𓏫 “ı͗mw” panel is part of the left arm 𓂝 “ˁ” of a throne 𓊨𓏏𓉗 “3s.t” that belonged to the pharaoh 𓉐𓉼 “pr-ˁ3” ‘Great House’ Thutmose IV (𓈍𓅝𓄟𓈍𓏫) “ḏḥwti-ms ḫ3i-ḫ3w” ‘Thoth is born, radiant of crowns’. Traces of glue on the surface suggest that the low relief, with its exquisitely carved details, was once covered with gold 𓋞 “nbw” foil. On one side, the king 𓇓𓏏𓈖 “nsw” is shown as a standing sphinx 𓎛𓅱𓃭𓏤 “hw” or 𓊏𓊪𓃭 “šsp” subduing the enemies 𓐍𓆑𓏏𓏭𓀏 “ḫfty” of Egypt/Kemet 𓆎𓅓𓏏𓊖 “kmt”. The falcon 𓃀𓇋𓎡𓅃 “bı͗k” at the upper right represents the god 𓊹 “nṯr” Horus 𓅄 “ḥrw” who is identified as "the great god, with dappled plumage, giving life and dominion." The text above the sphinx's back reads: "Horus, the lord of might and action, trampling all foreign lands." On the other side, the panel depicts the enthroned king wearing the red crown 𓋔 “ini” North 𓇾𓇊 “t3-mḥw”. In front of him is the lion-headed goddess goddess Weret-hekau who is depicted in coronation scenes and is associated with the uraeus cobra 𓅜𓏏𓆘 “3ḫ.t” at the front of the king's crown. Behind the king is the ibis-headed god Thoth 𓅝 “ḏjḥwty” who presents him with "millions-of-years-of-life 𓁨 “ḥḥ” and dominion united with eternity." A second arm panel from the same throne is now in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Fragmentary Head of a King (ca. 1400–1390 B.C.) | New Kingdom For many years 𓆳𓊪𓏏𓏤 “rnp.t” the Fragments of this face 𓁷𓏤 “ḥr” were dispersed in various collections, but in 1993 it became possible to reunite the pieces through an exchange with the Petrie Museum, London and a long-term loan from the Musée du Louvre, Paris. The original statue 𓂙𓏏𓏭𓀾 “ḫnty” was probably what we call a "composite statue" in which the face and other areas of exposed flesh 𓇋𓅱𓆑𓄻 “ı͗wf” (the hands and feet) were carved from red jasper 𓐍𓈖𓅓𓏏𓏸𓏬 “hnm.t” and rest of the statue was carved from Egyptian 𓂋𓐝𓎀𓀂𓀭𓏪 “rmṯ” alabaster 𓍱𓊃𓎱 “sh.s” limestone 𓇋𓈖𓂋𓊌𓈖𓂝𓈖𓁼𓊌 “inr-n-ˁı͗nw” or wood 𓇋𓅓𓏲𓆭𓏫 “ı͗mw”. Although such statues most frequently come from the the reign of Akhenaten (𓇋𓏏𓈖𓇳 𓅜𓐍𓈖) “3ḫ-n-ı͗tn” ‘The Spirit of Aten’ Amarna period (ca. 1353-1336 B.C.), this work has been dated to the reign of Akhenaten's grandfather, Thutmose IV, on stylistic grounds.
