Two Boats with Female Mourners

Cleveland Museum of Art

The relief depicts two boats with female mourners carved into a stone. The stone is light-colored with darker areas indicating shadows and damage. The top portion shows a boat with many figures standing; some hold staffs or spears. On the right side of the top portion, there are hieroglyphics carved vertically. The bottom portion depicts another boat, with several people standing or kneeling; some appear to be holding staffs or spears. The background of the relief is neutral with a black background behind the stone relief. The style appears ancient, likely Egyptian. The artist and title are associated with "Two Boats with Female Mourners".
