Userhat and Shepset receive offers

Upper sub register: on the right Userhat and Shepset are seated in front of offerings. Both are wearing long, loose pleated robes, large coloured collars and wigs. Shepsut carries a cone of perfumed ointment and a lotus flower on her head. In front of them is a large festoon of onions (related to the cult of Osiris) adorned with garlands. On the left two priests-sem, wearing panther skins, purify the offering by pouring water on it and burning incense. In front of the priests are four kneeling lamenters. Lower sub-register: the scene is similar to the upper one, in this case Userhat and the priests-sem have their heads shaved and there is a different type of offering.
