He stands upon a plinth with an offering table in front of him, positioned awkwardly above his left foot. He wears a double-plume crown, wesekh-collar with arm bands, and short pleated kilt. He holds a long scepter in his left hand, and an ankh in his right. There is a damaged image in front of his face. To the right of the god Amun is a worshipper. Two columns of incised text above his head indicate that he is a scribe by the name of Anhurmose. He has a shaved head, and long pleated kilt. He holds a lotus flower to the face of the god with his right hand, while his left is raised in praise. |
