Funerary Stele of Keti and Senet
Photographer: Kenneth Garrett
Title: Funerary Stele of Keti and Senet
Description: Two young women stand facing one another, holding lotus blossoms to their noses; in the hand they are holding handkerchiefs. Keti (right) is more slender and long-limbed than her sister. Her dress with shoulder straps has a rare diamond pattern. Among the objects on the altar slab between the two women are two calves’ heads and a goose’s head. The rendition in fairly unsculptured flat relief is of high artistic quality, full of liveliness, elegance and individual differentiation.
