Untitled

Back of the (now) 7th page of a sketchbook that is thought to have belonged to Giovanni Belzoni. At the bottom of the page is a pencil sketch of a figure in a headdress of cow horns with a sun-disk between them, combined with the vulture headdress of Mut. (This probably represents the goddess Isis with the aspects of Hathor.) Directly above this is a very similar (but not identical) painted figure. The cow horns and sun disk part of the headdress remain only a pencil sketch though. The rest is coloured in red, green, blue and yellow. The skin is pink. Compared with the rest of the book, this page is upside-down. The page is creased vertically down the middle which might suggest that the notebook was not originally bound with a hard cover.
