Amenhotep III in the Blue Crown in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, September 2018
Amenhotep III in the Blue Crown
Period: New Kingdom
Dynasty: Dynasty 18
Reign: reign of Amenhotep III
Date: ca. 1390–1352 B.C.
Geography: Possibly from Memphite Region; From Egypt
Medium: Quartzite
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)
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1956
Accession Number: 56.138
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.
