Horemheb offers wine to Horus

The upper part of the wall is decorated with an elaborate kheker frieze featuring two yellow discs, probably to be interpreted as sun discs. Underneath is an ornamental band coloured blue, red, green, yellow, black and white, below which is a band decorated with stars on a dark blue background to represent the sky. Horemheb offers wine to Horus. The king wears the nemes with uraeus and a broad collar. His kilt, white and gold, is richly decorated with a triangular front, a red, blue and gold belt ending with an elaborate decoration showing two golden ureos with a sun disc. He stands in front of Horus with a falcon's head. The god holds the sceptre was and an ankh wearing the crown of Upper and Lower Egypt and a white and gold skirt. Behind the king is Isis dressed in white while behind Horus is another representation of Horemheb wearing a white skirt.
