Thomas Jastram sees himself as a classical sculptor. His sculptural work includes life-size works - including many for public spaces such as an imposing Neptune Fountain in Warnemünde, which was erected in 2022 - portrait busts and small sculptures such as his 'Sophia'.

This torso from the MMA, New York, is one of the most beautiful surviving statues of gods from antiquity. It probably depicts Faunus, to whom a temple on the Tiber Island was dedicated together with Jupiter, the father of the gods, as early as 194 BC.

Like his Greek role model Pan, he protects the cattle and the fields, and as an ancient Latin god he is also considered to be a prophet.

From the Middle Kingdom onwards, the deceased were given small figurines to take with them into the grave to carry out fieldwork for them in the afterlife. This custom was also adopted for the decoration of royal tombs in the 18th dynasty. Of the 413 ashtis in Tutankhamun's tomb, one small group stands out in terms of size and artistic design: The so-called magnificent ushabtis. Our example shows the king with the Blue Crown and the insignia crosier and frond in his crossed hands. The inscription reproduces the six chapters of the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
