The ‘Seated Scribe’

Before completing your journey in ancient Egypt, let’s pay a visit to the most famous Egyptian at the Louvre, the Seated Scribe. It’s one of the most iconic works in the museum but we have no idea who it is meant to be! The base the scribe sat on, which would have indicated the figure’s name, was never found. The colours are remarkably well preserved. The eyes, made of rock crystal inlaid in copper, are incredibly lifelike and alert. Gaze into them for an experience you will never forget!
