Famously appearing on the Egyptian 200-pound note, this 5th-Dynasty (c. 2494–2345 BC) statue is a masterpiece of Old Kingdom sculpture. Although the identity of the official is unknown, by portraying himself as a scribe, he wished to exhibit the fact that he was one of the elite and literate few, intelligent, and indispensable to administration and culture, embodying the power of knowledge and the written word in pharaonic civilization.


This piece is accompanied by Certificate A , issued by Konouz in collaboration with the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities. It confirms that the replica faithfully reproduces the original artifact at 1:1 scale , with careful attention to its form, surface treatment, and detail.
