The second row from the top contains four squares; the top left square has a raised portrait of a person with a bird-like face. The top right square in this row contains a coat of arms. The bottom two squares in this row contain raised portraits of people. The third row from the top contains four squares with raised portraits of people. The bottom row contains four squares; the left and right squares contain raised portraits of people. The middle two squares contain raised images that are difficult to distinguish. The door panel sits on a white surface against a white wall.
