    Sneferu-nefer:

    Fifth dynasty. Sneferu-nefer was a musician at court, Overseer of Palace Singers and Overseer of Entertainments. The responsibility to entertain the divine king and his family, and to arrange music for religious ceremonies was a serious one, and well-rewarded in the Old Kingdom.

    Sneferu-nefer is shown as a naked youth in a fine painted limestone statue. A number of nude statues are known from the late Old Kingdom; they may have suggested that the deceased was ready to be born again into the next life, where he would have eternal youth.

    Item 135 in the Egyptian Art in the Age of the Pyramids catalogue.
