Amenhotep III in the Blue Crown

Amenhotep III in the Blue Crown. Dimensions: h. 35 cm (13 3/4 in); face only: h. 12.8 cm (5 1/16 in); w. 12.6 cm (4 15/16 in). Dynasty: Dynasty 18. Reign: reign of Amenhotep III. Date: ca. 1390-1352 B.C..
The facial features of this head of Amenhotep III show the stylistic elements of his later representations: highly arched brows, elongated almond-shaped eyes, and full, sharply outlined lips. The Blue Crown (called the khepresh) was apparently the king's preferred royal headdress and is worn by him in many of his statues and reliefs.
