A painted scene shows three standing figures flanking and interacting with a decorated boat hull or funeral boat-like vessel, with a central figure in front holding an arm or object over the boat. The image appears to be a modern painted depiction on paper rather than an excavated ancient artifact.

The composition is dominated by a brightly decorated boat/vessel shape in the upper center, with a patterned body (floral/rosette-like motifs in red, orange, blue, and yellow), blue striping along the edges, and a rounded end facing the viewer. In the mid-ground, a central person with dark hair and a light face leans forward, their arm raised toward/over the boat. On the left, a red-robed standing figure with a blue collar and a blue-and-yellow staff-like object stands facing inward toward the boat; on the right, another figure in red with a yellow belt and white garment stands near a tall white panel or structure. The background is a mottled brown ground with light beige architectural-like shapes and scattered paint losses/overpaint. A large dark blot obscures the lower central area. No clearly legible Egyptian hieroglyphs are visible anywhere in the remaining painted surfaces. There is no readable Greek/Coptic/Arabic text visible.
