D.1925.42/9. A scene in the tomb of Djeserkaresoneb that has since suffered great damage, showing the value of Campbell’s facsimiles. In the top register (see also p.1) the two ladies seated side-by-side at the far right have been completely destroyed while the two women in front of them and the serving girl survive only in fragments in a private collection. In the middle register, the upper bodies of both the lute- and pipe-players have been destroyed. See: http://tinyurl.com/7y53fcp 22
