A vertically oriented piece of tapering leather features a reddish-brown border around a central tan panel. Deep horizontal and vertical cracks fragment the dry surface, which reveals faint, incised figures: a figure seated on a throne faces a standing one with a raised arm. A folded rectangular cap sits at the top, while the bottom edge remains frayed. The composition emphasizes the ancient material's wrinkled texture and delicate, decorative linework.
