This work constitutes the synthesis of research on royal statuary of the 19th Dynasty, the catalog of which was published online in 2019. This volume brings together the results of observations on statues divided by type. A first chapter presents the number of statues per reign and the frequency of the types to which they correspond, including statues reused during the 19th Dynasty and those attributed to it. The following chapters condense the evolution of statue types by following that of their costumes, hairstyles and attributes, their frequency in statuary groups, but also two-dimensional representations of these statues and their parallels in ritual scenes. The examination carried out makes it possible to establish the place occupied by each type of statue in a temple and gives rise to an attempt to interpret its function in the overall furniture of the temple. It continues with a summary of the provenances, dimensions, materials and techniques, another devoted to the accoutrements and, finally, a summary presentation of the style and iconography, accompanied by notes on the dating criteria. A conclusion summarizes the state of the observations by retracing the royal journey through the statuary types in the corresponding parts of the imaginary temple.
