These have a symmetry of themes, even though variations of details
exist. Both include
multiple porters with offerings, men or women, priests of the Ka, etc. All move towards the rear, where a seated Kagemni awaits them, with his back towards his false door
Among the multiple details which show the interest that the Egyptians often especially showed for the animal kingdom the period of the Old Kingdom -
what should be noted is the precision of the representations. As for example: this hedgehog in cage, these small calves at play but which doesn't stop them showing a dead calf being transported in a basket , etc. What does remain dubious, in front, is the representation of two ibexes in a basket: it is quite possible that it represents an ornamental accessory
