Description: This is the plate accompanying a memorial tribute written for Sara Yorke Stevenson in the Pennsylvania Museum Bulletin. There are Egyptian stylistic elements (winged sun, flanking cobras, palm columns), a nod to her career in Egyptology. The epigram below reads ADVERSIS MAJOR PAR SECUNDIS (Greater in adversity, equal in prosperity). The Roman numeral LXXIV (74) appears in the upper left corner, her age at death.
