Tomb Stele of Nesptah

Cleveland Museum of Art

Ancient Egyptian tomb stele of Nesptah. The stele is arched at the top and broken in two parts. The top part features a winged sun disk with red and white lines on a green background. Below the sun disk are rows of green, red, and white rectangles. The middle section depicts nine standing mummified figures in a row against a green background. The bottom section consists of rows of hieroglyphics on red, white, and green backgrounds. The stele's border is decorated with a pattern of green, red, white, and black rectangles. The background of the image is dark gray, with the stele casting a shadow on a lighter gray surface.
