Hunting in the marshes

Detail of the hunting scene in the marshes. Standing on a papyrus boat is Menna, intent on hunting wild ducks with the help of throwing sticks. She is wearing a long semi-transparent dress and a white skirt and a wide collar. His face has been obliterated. Behind him is Henuttawy in an attitude of veneration. Behind her is a maiden with torso and head turned backwards, carrying ducks and lotus flowers. Between Menna's feet is a naked female figure who is plucking a lotus from the waters below. In front of Menna is a male figure with a skirt and shaved head holding three ducks. In the waters are fish, lotus flowers and ducks.
