The centre is occupied by the figure of a standing maiden clutching a festoon of flowers and in her other hand a bundle of papyrus, she has a band on her head from which a braid emerges, on her head some lotus flowers; under the maiden's feet is a panel with the stylisation of a papyrus: there is a vertical strip, possibly a watercourse, with two ducks, at the end bundles of papyrus; at the top there is a papyrus plant with two nests and two ducks; in the lunettes two lotus flowers.
