Description
Content (description)
There are plain mouldings above and below the relief, which could perhaps be on one side of a base. A nude youth with long hair is laid out on a bed. A kneeling woman tears her hair in the background: she holds in her left hand a long lock that she has torn out. Two other women sit in mourning on the ground, one at each end of the bed.
