Photograph shows a painted outer coffin/box with turquoise and orange panels incised and painted with rectilinear designs, and a mummy-like inner effigy figure lying inside on a platform.

The image is a museum display showing an outer coffin container viewed from above and slightly from the side. The outer coffin has an orange ground with thin, geometric border bands and turquoise/green rectangular panels filled with colored line-work that resembles decorative friezes rather than clearly legible single columns of text. The lid area is largely geometric and patterned, with no clearly readable cartouche. At the bottom of the frame, an inner, dark gray/black mummy-shaped figure (body effigy) with blue-painted face details lies horizontally; the face appears to have painted features and a gold-toned strip/element around the head or mouth area. The photograph does not show any clearly distinct hieroglyphic groupings at a legible level, nor any cartouches. No Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is visible.
