TT52, the tomb of Nakht and his wife, Tawy



This register can be considered to be part of the lower one, even though it would originally have had its own image of the seated Nakht and Tawy, with a pile of provisions in front of them. From what still exists of the right-most part of the register, to the left of couple and the pile of provisions, were two porters, of which now only the legs of the left-most has survived. These two carried gifts of food, of which only the hanging vine of the rear one has survived. The design of his white kilt is however still apparent, with no sign of an overlaying semi-transparent garment. There is no surviving descriptive text.
The area behind the two porters was divided into two sub-registers, the upper-most one having been almost lost.
