Those are beautiful portraits. It's a shame you couldn't post one image each along with its identification or provenance. You never know if some viewers may want some sort of provenance or information regarding each image posted in this thread.

The darker colour under the chin and down the sides of the arms is shading.

So darker color on the face is "blush" while the coloring on the arms is "shading" even though they are all of the same shade??

Really?

Even though Horus has the same "shading" and/or "blush" all over his body.

I mean really??

^ Note the arm hieroglyphs. I take it the arms are blushing also. LOL [Big Grin]

@rahotep101, Why did you choose Meriam George to best resemble Nefertari, when instead, someone like Anaya Hayes (who is an Egyptian) would have been more appropriate.

Anaya Hayes

If anything, Meriam George could possibly resemble YOUR wife (Nofret) lol; unless the color used is symbolic.

I honestly had never heard of her before, but if she claims so...it's a bit weird. Then again on the other hand a lot of black people feel
uncomfortable calling themselves black (the colonial mindset, of black is negative). I think it's something like some Afro-Latinos, perhaps? But not being African is a bit too far fetched.
