A painted wooden stele with a round top. The figure of the goddess Nut forms a border over the scene below in which a woman stands adoring the god Re-Harakhty. Underneath the star-filled body of Nut is a disk with uraei and two wedjet eyes. Re-Harakhty stands before an altar and holds the was-sceptre in his left hand and an ankh-sign in the other. The unnamed woman wears a finely pleated transparent linen dress and long wig. Above the two figures is an inscription in nine vertical lines of hieroglyphs. On the outer edge of the stele is another inscription.
