Sha-Amun-en-su

Tribute for the National Museum of Rio de Janeiro, which was destroyed by fire in 2018 with artifacts valuable to world history.
The chosen piece of the National Museum was the mummy Sha-Amun-en-su. Unfortunately I could not see this mummy up close. I like the legend that surrounds it, about Dom Pedro II, King of Brazil, have her in her private room and always talk to her when she was alone.
Sha-Amun-en-su was one of the great and important singers of the Temple of Amon, in Karnak, Thebes. She was a Heset. I tried to portray this moment of worship to the God Amun, along with other priestesses.
I did par with my brother, Rodrigo Avila, who modeled Sha-Amun-en-su in 3d in a portrait.
