The facade of the tomb depicts scenes with Akhenaten, Nefertiti, Meritaten, and Meketaten (and on the left Ankhesenpaaten) offering to the Aten.

Near the entrance Akhenaten, Nefertiti and three daughters offer to the deity Aten and in a nearby scene Parennefer offers a prayer.

On the West Wall an award scene shows Akhenaten and Nefertiti in the window of Appearances. The princesses Meritaten, Meketaten, Ankhesenpaaten and the Queen's Sister Mutbenret (sometimes referred to as Mutnodjemet) are shown in the palace in a room behind the window. Parennefer is shown receiving many gifts from the royal family, followed by a trip back to his house among celebrating crowds. Parennefer is shown being received at the gates of his own house by his wife (whose name was lost), but was said to be a favorite of the King's Chief Wife Neferneferuaten-Nefertiti.
