Image taken from ancient Egyptian tomb decoration, two men herding 3 large birds (geese? but have crests on head). Birds are eating foliage, men carry sticks. Egyptian symbols above, of kheper beetle, eye of Horus, hieroglyphic signs. Black stitching on most figures, white thread on the palest original colours. 3 brass hooks sewn to top edge for hanging.
