Abstract :
[en] The tomb of the second High Priest of Amun under the reign of Thutmose IV, Amenhotep Sise (TT 75), is one of the few Theban tombs that can be nominally ascribed to its artistic author, the "painter of Amun Userhat", who signed his work through a double self-portrait in assistenza. The study of the painted decoration of the tomb leads to the conclusion that this painter was deeply involved in the royal projects of his time in Karnak and even might have been one of the designers of the decorative programme of the Festival Courtyard of Thutmose IV, and, as such, was hired by his chief in the administration of the estate of Amun in Thebes, the Second High Priest of Amun, Amenhotep Sise, to work in his own private funerary monument.
