古埃及 荷魯斯小時候的青銅雕像，20 公分 - 西班牙出口許可證 - 數位

Bronze figure representing the god Horus child standing upright in an attitude of walking, taking his right hand to his mouth as a symbol of childhood as it is the gesture repeated by children, while the left arm remains attached to the body. This sculpture presents the typically Egyptian conventions such as the idealization and representation of an advanced leg as a symbol of royalty and power.

He is wearing the double crown or sejemty, which results from the union of the crown of Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt, attributing to the wearer the power over both territories. Although it is not appreciated, possibly the crown would be decorated with the ureus or royal cobra as a symbol of power. In addition, as a symbol of childhood, it is touched with the finely braided wick of childhood. He presents golden eyes with black pupils.

This iconography of Horus as a child responds to the identification given by the Greeks to whom they called Horus the child, Hor-pa-jard or Harpocrates, to differentiate him from the other bifurcation of Horus: Horus the Elder, Hor-ur or Harsiesis.
