This granodiorite sacred bull, a highlight of our Classic Week auctions, is ‘a gem of a piece,’ says Hannah Solomon, our Antiquities specialist and Head of Sale in New York. ‘Wonderfully carved, he becomes the star of any room he inhabits.’
.⠀
‘The bull symbolised power and sexual potency in ancient Egypt, making it the perfect icon for a deity,’ Solomon explains. ‘The sculpture has a real sense of personality.’
