Drawing description

The deceased is depicted wearing a pleated garment and carrying a bud and an oil cone over his head, covered by a plain wig. His hands raised in adoration towards Osiris, who’s sitting on a throne slightly raised by a pedestal; the god wears the atef-crown and holds the heqa-sceptre and the whip in his hands. There’s an offering table between the two figures, surrounded by sacred plants and topped by offerings and a libation vessel.
