Painted, stuccoed rectangular plaque/stela fragment with a curved top, showing a row of standing figures beneath an arched canopy and a band of hieroglyphs along the lower register.

The image depicts a vertically oriented, rectangular object with a rounded or arched top edge. Above the figures is a decorative canopy/awning with broad yellow-gold panels and dark blue/black interior spaces. Below, several human figures stand in profile or three-quarter view, with contrasting light-colored faces and torsos and darker bodies; they appear to wear long garments and some hold objects or present arms at their sides. A central standing figure is more prominent under the canopy. The lower third contains multiple horizontal lines/bands of hieroglyphic text painted in black/dark lines on a light background with yellow and red accents.
