This beautiful large statue by Veronese is cast from a high quality polyresin compound and has been handpainted in a burnished bronze finish with gold and coloured accents as shown. It depicts the Egyptian God Thoth standing in his customary pose as scribe, complete with tablet and stylus. The detail in this piece is truly remarkable!

The statue stands 42cm high with the base measuring 17cm x 9cm. It is a very solid piece and weighs around 2kgs. The base is lined with black velvet to prevent slipping and damage to surfaces. A truly stunning piece of Egyptian decor!

Thoth, the Scribe of the Gods, was also the God of drawing, writing, geometry, wisdom, medicine, music, astronomy, magic and the moon. His sacred bird was the ibis. He is portrayed with the head and neck of an ibis and carries a tablet and pen. Thoth means "He of Djehut" which means "he who created everything from sound". It is said that Thoth wrote books in which he set forth a fabulous knowledge of magic and incantation.
