- Art description:
This panel has two very striking sets of concentric circles on the lower face, and higher there are six domino cups, three cups circled by a groove, and four other cups.
Eight concentric circles, the outer one incomplete, surround a cup from which three radial grooves run. This figure is faintly linked with a cup and seven concentric circles, with two radial grooves. What is very interesting about these is that they are fresh, and that the construction of the 'circles' shows a series of straight lines that make up part of the grooves. There is a large cup and two small ones on the same surface.
