The mother of the family is seated on a chair between two papyrus columns. She has just put on a new linen gown and a head dress of flowers. Now she is applying mascara to her eyes to enhance her beauty while her daughter watches and admires her new wig. On the table are many jars containing perfumes and oils and a highly polished copper mirror so she can see her reflection.
