English: This small wooden stele decorated with bright colors, a testimony of personal piety, is typical of the Third Intermediate Period. If the scene represented is classic: a deceased person in front of a deity, the originality of the stele comes from the fact that the classic image of the deceased standing with his arms raised is replaced here by that of a harpist.
Français : Cette petite stèle en bois ornée de couleurs vives, témoignage de piété personnelle, est typique de la Troisième Période Intermédiaire. Si la scène représentée est classique : un défunt devant une divinité, l'originalité de la stèle vient du fait que l'image classique du défunt debout les bras levés est remplacée ici par celle d'un harpiste.
