介绍（中）	伊姆霍特普是第三王朝乔瑟国王的顾问，他设计了塞加拉的阶梯金字塔，这是埃及最早的金字塔。由于这一成就以及他在智慧和学习方面的其他成就，在后来的时期，他成为历史上唯一被占卜并拥有专门邪教的非王室人士之一，这在梅菲特地区尤为强烈。在像这样的铜合金雕像中，他坐着，戴着贴身的帽子，膝盖上拿着一个卷轴。伊姆霍特普的卷轴强调了他的智慧和博学，以及他作为抄写员赞助人的角色，并暗示了后来被认为是他在医学、建筑和工程领域的许多知识尝试。他的服装各不相同，但在这种情况下，他穿着一个宽大的衣领，衣领前后都有关节，还有一条长长的褶皱方格呢短裙，裹在身上，使其末端从腰部向前垂下，形成垂直褶皱。
介绍（英）	Imhotep was adviser to King Djoser in the third dynasty and he is credited with the design of the Step Pyramid in Saqqara, the earliest pyramid in Egypt. For this and other achievements of wisdom and learning attributed to him, in later periods he became one of the only historical non-royal people to be divinized and to have a dedicated cult, which was particularly strong in the Memphite region. In copper alloy statuettes like this one, he is shown sitting, wearing his close-fitting cap and holding a scroll on his lap. Imhotep’s scroll serves to emphasize his wisdom and erudition, his role as a patron of scribes, and hints at the many intellectual forays into medicine, architecture, and engineering that were later ascribed to him. His attire varies, but in this instance he wears a broad collar that is articulated on the front and back of his chest, as well as a long pleated kilt wrapped about his body so that its ends fall forward from his waist in a vertically pleated panel.
