Description

[Egypt, probably Thebes, New Kingdom (1540–1069 BCE), Dynasty 18, reign of Tuthmosis II (1493–1479 BCE) or later] In later ages tombs must have served as dwelling places for peasants, since the walls became completely blackened with soot. This fragment is from the most common type of Egyptian tomb scene: the deceased and his wife seated at the funeral banquet of at an offering table.
