DescriptionRelief in stone of birds among flowers. The stone is rectangular, with straight sides on the right, left, and bottom. The top edge is fluted with five rounded bumps; two rounded pillars on the sides and three arches in the center with the tallest in the very middle. Two birds are depicted in the center of the relief in profile, with the head of the right bird raised and tipped back. There is one flower on each side of the two birds, and each flower has three leaves. The design of this piece lines up with the designs of 2008.1.205a and 2008.1.205b, with this sitting atop the other two as columns.On View
