Family of Neferherenptah. Statue of his wife Satmeret

The statuette of Satmeret, Fifi's wife, rests on a thin base and is protected by a back pillar. The woman, of smaller proportions than her husband, is depicted standing, with her arms rigidly close to her body and her hands outstretched along her thighs. She wears a black wig of medium length, with curls drawn in by minute incisions. Around his neck is a band of various colours and a large usekh necklace with numerous rows painted in blue, white and red. Another ornament, protruding from the necklace, is a wide band consisting of rows of beads of various colours that enlivens the white tunic. The body is clearly visible under what must have been a fine, thin fabric of the white tunic.
