    This a Statue of Queen Ankhnesmeryre II and her Son, Pepy II

    Explanation:

    This a Statue of Queen Ankhnesmeryre II and her Son, Pepy II, This statue narrates that her son Pepi II became the King as a child or as a young boy. Statue confirms that he is still under the protection of his mother, who acted as queen-regent. Pepy seems as a miniature king rather than a child and the queen holds him protectively as he clasps her hand.

    Mother and son are not looking each other and facing in different direction. the only connection they have is the touch of the hand. Queen left hand is supporting the Kind Back, while right hand is on his knee. King Pepi II is wearing the royal head-cloth known as nemes, with a uraeus on his brow while a queen wears a long narrow skirt.
