almost gone showing the wood beneath. 

A trace of decoration in red outline is 

visible. Here the King wears a round 

wig with a yellow ribbon with blue spots

It is not easy to say whether the wig was 

dx[?]/<ar>k blue or black. The surmounting atef

crown xxx[?]/<has> similar colours to that on the 

other side. Decoration on back of 

sphinx is bands of blue green or 

yellow instead of spots of these 

colours as on the other side.

Negroes similar to other side

Syrians blue & green bands 

& spots on yellow.

There are almost invisible details on 

the claws of the sphinx in yellow paint.
