When complete this scene showed Osorkon offering a clepsydra (water clock) to the snake goddess Wadjyt. He wears the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt. Osorkon's wife, Queen Karoma, stands by his side. She wears a plumed crown with sun-disc and holds a flywhisk and ankh, the hieroglyphic symbol of life. Her portly figure reflects the female ideal of the time. The block omes from a monumental gateway in Bubastis. Its relief depicted Osorkon's sed jubilee, at which a king's god-given powers were ritually renewed. The arrangement of the scenes mirrored Egypt's dual territory, which was formally reclaimed by the rejuvinated ruler. Red granite temple-relief, from a gateway in the temple at Bubastis, showing relief representations of Osorkon II and Karomama, his wife, standing in adoration before an unidentified deity, with cartouches above; some traces of colour survive.
