They are here restored to nearly their original brightness, which can be revived by touching lightly with a brush. The baboons are still quite clear and bright. Here, however, the grey film is not so thick, and damage has been avoided owing to the great distance from the ground. The background is of a stronger blue-grey than elsewhere in the tomb. The red on the tails of two birds and on the tree-trunk has disintegrated as a result of the admixture of black to give a deeper tone.Technique: Tempera on paper

The details, of which many are lost, were merely in paint. The sculpture is executed upon limestone blocks, the defects of which were patched with gypsum plaster. The blues and greens were coarsely ground and thickly laid on. The black has everywhere disappeared, and now shows up as white; thus on the snake-hieroglyphs of the column on the left, the white spots now seen upon the yellow were originally black.Technique: Tempera on paper
