AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Very beautiful and refined rare Egyptian wood and gesso panel/part of a sarcophagus. Gorgeous Hathor cow and more beautiful images. Given its age, still in nice condition. See the photos that are part of the description. Comes from an old Dutch collection. On the back is still part of a typed description, which makes clear that this piece has been in the Netherlands for a long time.
