LA STATUA RITROVATA. IDENTIFICAZIONE, ANALISI E PROPOSTA DI RICOSTRUZIONE VIRTUALE DI UNA SCULTURA CONSERVATA PRESSO IL MUSEO EGIZIO DI TORINO.

This article illustrates a case study from an ongoing research project on the statues and sculptural fragments from Tebtynis, discovered by Carlo Anti during the 1930-1936 excavation campaigns, in the temple dedicated to the god Soknebtynis. Specifically, it examines a non-royal statue which one of the authors has recently identified as Turin, Museo Egizio S. 19400+S. 19400/1. The authors combine a study of relevant archival records currently kept in Padua and Venice, Italy, with the virtual reconstruction of the fragment of the head and the stylistic analysis of the statue in order to shed light on the sculpture and retrace its post-excavation history.
