  • Problems/Questions
    VERIFIED: 14-11-28 (the only object number mentioned in original photo register entry) is only two fitting fragments out of the many others depicted here, and can not be definitely identified among them (see B9106); others added based on object register photo notations and annotated mounted print; 14-11-40 and 14-11-41 both also questionably reference this photo, but they are limestone not alabaster; description corrected, identifications verified based on annotated mounted print and object register; MFA accession numbers verified
