This image is part of a scene from the Punt reliefs showing offerings, in Queen Hatshepsut's mortuary temple, an image of which is in Auguste Mariette, Deir-el-Bahari: documents topographiques, historiques et ethnographiques recueillis dans ce temple, Leipzig, 1877.
Queen Hatshepsut (c1507-1458 BC) was the wife of Thutmose II, her step brother, she was very powerful and her temple, at Deir el-Bahari although much larger, was modelled after that of Mentuhotep II.
