Extra large size terracotta statue of the god Amun-Ra-Osiris. Dark, acrylic paint, copper and gold accents

About: Amun-Ra-Osiris is a fascinating example of ancient Egyptian syncretism, combining aspects of three major gods into a single, powerful deity. This composite god merges Amun, Ra, and Osiris, each of whom played a vital role in Egyptian mythology and religion.Amun began as a local god in Thebes but rose to national prominence, eventually being associated with Ra, the sun god. This union created Amun-Ra, the king of the gods, embodying supreme power and creation. Ra, the ancient sun god, was believed to travel across the sky in his solar boat, providing life and ruling over the sky, Earth, and the underworld. Osiris, on the other hand, was the god of the afterlife, resurrection, and regeneration, known as the judge of the dead and a symbol of eternal life and rebirth.The fusion of these deities into Amun-Ra-Osiris reflects the Egyptian practice of syncretism, blending different gods to combine their attributes and extend their worship. Amun-Ra-Osiris represents the unification of creation (Amun), the sustaining life force (Ra), and the afterlife (Osiris), embodying a complete cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
