Color reconstruction of an ancient seated statue of the Nomarch Idu II of Dendera.

Credits to the The Metropolitan Museum of Art for contributing the original photo, and Google Gemini for generating the color reconstruction.

Inspired to colorize in the first place after reading the description from The Met website, mentioning traces of original color from the sculpture. Not perfect from what I can see, I don't think Gemini got the beads right on the apron within the kilt; but otherwise pretty impressive in my opinion. It brings me one step closer to visualizing how ancient Egypt was in color 👍
