Upper register: seated figure facing right wearing a plain garment and seated on a plain stool. This figure is holding up a conical cup together with a small standing figure with the upper body frontal but the head facing left. This small figure is wearing a short skirt and has stick-like legs. The figure has the right arm raised to hold the conical cup but the left arm touches the head of the standing human headed bull placed behind him. This bull figure is depicted standing on an unclear pattern of straight parallel lines placed vertically. The animal above the bull figure appears to be a lion but this is not certain. Behind these two figures is a birdman facing right holding upright a long thin shaped object. Next to him is a nude female facing forward.
Lower register: has few figures including a human headed bull 's head facing front with a long beard depicted with straight parallel lines. The two humans in the upper register are depicted above this figure. After this in the composition is an unclear geometric pattern. The last figure in this register is a nude human facing right with an oval head and eye in the same style as the two humans in the upper register. [Input: ZK928 gB.j] |
