Fragmentary painted papyrus with funerary/religious vignettes of standing figures before offering tables and stacked registers of hieroglyphic text.

The image shows a horizontal, broken papyrus surface (torn edges and missing sections) with multiple colored scenes. On the left, two human figures in white garments and black wigs/heads are shown standing in front of a large vertical column of tightly packed hieroglyphs. In the middle, there is a wider horizontal band containing additional small figures and decorative elements, including what looks like an offering table or architectural platform; above/between some registers are small blocks of text. On the right, two standing figures face inward toward a text-bearing section. Across the composition, many small hieroglyphic signs are painted in black/red-brown on a light ground, arranged in columns and registers. No clearly legible cartouche or royal name is visible at this resolution. No Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is apparent.
