Egyptian tomb scene, illustration. This scene shows a barber (lower left) cutting men's hair, as depicted on the walls of the tomb of Userhat. It dates from the New Kingdom (Dynasty 18), during the reign of Amenhotep II, in around 1427-1400 BC. This tomb is in Thebes, Upper Egypt. The rest of the scene shows men waiting their turn to have their hair cut. This illustration (tempera on paper) was produced in 1925-26 by Egyptologist Nina de Garis Davies (1881-1965) on an expedition for the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
