A small ancient Egyptian bronze statuette of a standing canine figure — a wolf or jackal — shown in strict profile on a flat rectangular base with small modern metal supports beneath. The animal stands alert with head raised, ears pricked, slender legs, and a downward-curving tail. The surface is dark brown with age patina and shows some cracking.
