A weathered gray terracotta relief depicts three musicians in profile. On the left, a nude man plays two flutes. At the center, a partially draped woman carries a large tambourine. To the right, a draped woman sits playing a lyre. A decorative border of repeating leaf-like patterns trims the top. Roughly rectangular, the panel is missing its upper left corner and shows significant wear across its textured surface.
