Section of panel from a naos 522 B.C. Late Period The fragment from an openwork shrine panel depicts a goddess spreading her wings in protection of a small kneeling figure of a king. The king sits on a base decorated in the paneled palace-facade motif, and he offers a wedjat eye on a neb basket, the whole topped by a nefer sign. The wedjat eye is one of the 'great offerings' representing all offerings - like the round nu pot or the figure of the goddess Maat - and conveys that all good things are being rendered to the god by the king. The god in question is missing and would have been located in between this element and a mirroring element.The fragment came into the collection with a second fragment of a wooden inlaid goddess that proved to match a shrine fragment in the Louvre. The Louvre fragment can be associated with the pharaoh Seheribre Pedubast, a king who led a rebellion against the Persian ruler Darius in probably 522 BC, that is, shortly after the Persian conquest of Egypt.
