 This facsimile painting copies an offering scene in the tomb of Nebamun and Ipuky in Western Thebes (TT 181). The scene shows Nebamun, his mother, Tjepu, and a daughter, Mutnofret, being offered wine by Nebamun's wife, Henutnefret. The facsimile was painted at the tomb in 1916 by Nina de Garis Davies, a member of the Graphic Section of the Museum's Egyptian Expedition.
