A relief from alabasterous limestone. It shows a small pomegranate tree, given similar reliefs probably from the park of King Assurbanipal (669-627 BC), with ten branches, which are accurately made with leaves and fruits down to the smallest details. From the cypress to the right, the trunk with the lower branch can be seen. To the left of the tree one can still see the lower part of the garment with the foot of one of the servants or courtiers and behind it the branch of a conifer, perhaps a cedar, sculpture, stone, limestone, H cm, L cm, Thickness 3 cm, Neo Assyrian Period 669-627
