| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a richly detailed polychrome scene of the young pharaoh Tutankhamun enthroned in regal splendor, attended by a court servant positioned to his side. The composition is rendered in vivid applied color, capturing the opulent decorative vocabulary of ancient Egyptian royal iconography, including hieroglyphic motifs, stylized floral borders, and symbolic emblems of divine kingship. Tutankhamun is shown in full pharaonic regalia, conveying authority and ceremonial grandeur. The intricate gilded and colored detailing highlights the artistic sophistication of the New Kingdom period. The rectangular format of the flan allows the scene to be presented as a miniature tableau, framed by an ornamental border. |
