This is an image of a bronze figurine, representing a seated cat, a common symbol associated with the ancient Egyptian goddess Bastet. The cat is portrayed in a typical Egyptian pose, sitting upright with its tail wrapped around the right side of its body. Its features are stylized but delineative, with pointed ears, a slender body, and defined facial features. The metal has a greenish patina, indicative of corrosion over time, which suggests its considerable age and that it has undergone chemical changes, possibly due to oxidation. It seems to be crafted with a high level of detail, and there appears to be a ring or loop on the cat's back near the shoulders, which might have allowed it to be suspended or attached to something. This object is characteristic of ancient Egyptian art, reflecting their reverence for cats and the traits they symbolized, such as grace, poise, and protection.
