Fiziksel açıklama
Panel, tapestry-woven in coloured silks and red wool on linen warps. The design represents the sacred hawk with wings outspread, wearing the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt, and clasping in its talons four sceptres, two of which are feather sceptres and another a "Uas". In front is the "Ded" or sacred column with lotus plants springing from its base. Behind are the sun and crescent moon.
