490750 Coffin of Nesykhonsu, Thebes, Late 21st to Early 22nd Dynasty, 1000-900 BC (gessoed & painted sycamore fig) by Egyptian, Third Intermediate Period (c.1069-664 BC); 211x70 cm; Cleveland Museum of Art, OH, USA; (add.info.: Judging by its size, this must have been Nesykhonsu?s outer coffin. The main scene in the interior (near the top) shows a priest clad in a panther skin with the mummy of Nesykhonsu behind. The god appears in mummy form and wears a sun disk on his head. The scarab beetle inside the sun disk identifies him as Khepri, the morning sun, and the hieroglyphs to the right identify him as Atum, the evening sun. Taken together, image and text represent the sun god in both his rising and setting, youthful and aged aspects.); Gift of the John Huntington Art and Polytechnic Trust; Egyptian, out of copyright.
