Tjenena seated

The royal fan bearer Tjenena sits on a chair with a high backrest. His name and titles are preserved in the very damaged inscription on the back. Tjenena wears a long striated wig, once painted black, and he has a goatee. His body, painted red-brown, is clothed in a long white cloak-like garment that leaves his right shoulder uncovered.
