介绍（中）	摘自一个场景，显示Qenamun在纸莎草沼泽中捕鱼，这个片段传达了一种生命和运动的感觉 - 由于沼泽位于埃及有序世界的边缘，它们与无差别的，因此充满活力和混乱的领域联系在一起，这些领域包围并威胁着宇宙，但所有生命最终都源于此。纸莎草植物的伞形花序被排列成三排，开放的花朵小心翼翼地排列成三排，下面是一排未开放的花蕾，但艺术家对花朵使用了不同的尺寸，将它们稍微倾斜到这里和那个方向，并以看似随机的方式重叠开花的头部和它们的茎。在顶部飞行的鸭子在形状和位置上几乎相同，但同样微小的变化使场景充满活力。还要注意碎片底部可见的单个鸟类，包括白鹭。
介绍（英）	Excerpted from a scene that showed Qenamun fishing in the papyrus marshes, this fragment conveys a sense of life and movement -- as the marshes lay at the edges of the Egyptians' ordered world, they were associated with the undifferentiated and thus lively and chaotic realm which surrounded and threatened the cosmos, but from which all life ultimately sprang. The umbels of the papyrus plants are regimented, the open blossoms arranged carefully in three rows with a row of unopened buds below, yet the artist has used different sizes for the blooms, tilted them ever so slightly this way and that, and overlapped the flowering heads and their stalks in a seemingly random fashion. The ducks that fly at the top are almost identical in form and position, but again minor variations imbue the scene with life. Note also the individual birds, including an egret, visible at the bottom of the fragment.
