Visual Summary

Brief Description

Three stylized faces with elaborate headwear and arc-like shapes on a damaged wall painting fragment

Detailed Description

A rectangular fragment of a wall painting is mounted on a light brown board. The painting is on a rough, textured, light brown surface, likely plaster or mud, with significant areas of the painted layer missing. Three stylized faces are depicted horizontally across the lower half of the fragment, positioned below a horizontal band. This band, running across the top of the fragment, consists of a wide, light-colored stripe at the very top, followed by a narrower blue stripe, and then a darker, possibly blue or black, patterned stripe adorned with small, light-colored star-like or floral motifs. From left to right, the first face is light-skinned with delicate features, including elongated eyes and a small mouth. It wears an elaborate headpiece or hairstyle with blue and white patterned elements. Behind its head, a blue and light green arc-like shape is visible. The second face, in the center, is also light-skinned and faces forward, with similar delicate features and a patterned headpiece. A blue and light green arc-like shape is also behind this head. The third face, on the right, is darker in tone and partially obscured, looking slightly to the left. It also features a patterned headpiece and a blue and light green arc-like element behind it. The painted details are outlined in reddish-brown lines. The rough texture of the underlying material is visible through the damaged painted surface.
