Description

A pale, rough rock face fills the centre of a dark photograph, with a square opening cut into it on the left and a smaller recess on the right. Several loose rocks lie against the right-hand side, and a sandy, stony surface runs across the foreground. The dark surroundings suggest the camera is inside the tomb chamber.
