Statue of Kai

Description:

It is painted limestone with inlaid crystal eyes. The height is 55.9 cm and the width of the base is 25 cm. At his feet are two of his many children: a son, who is shown as a child but is old enough to have been awarded the title of scribe, stands by his right leg in the traditional pose of youth; and a daughter, Nefret, kneels and embraces her father's left leg.
