"The hoopoe shown here, was painted by Carter, and comes from the bush on the other side of the net, in the scene of Khnumhotep catching birds. The difference in the respective styles, and indeed intentions of the Survey’s artists is evident in the contrast between the bird shown here and those in the previous image. It is also interesting to note that this was acknowledged at the time by Newberry, who felt that the original paintings themselves had decayed to the extent that the artists should be allowed a certain license to ‘interpret’ what remained: ‘Mr. Blackden aimed at ascertaining the original design in a somewhat diagrammatic style: Mr. Carter and Mr Brown copy faithfully what they see, and render it in its present condition.”" - taken from ‘The Archaeological Survey’ by Christopher Naunton in The EES: the early years (www.oxbowbooks.com/bookinfo.cfm/ID/82885).
