Winged Isis
Her name means "seat" or "throne; in ancient Egypt she was regarded as the mother of all Kings. In myth she sought her dead husband and brother, Osiris, conceived her son Horus by him, and mourned him together with her Sister Nepthys. Isis was regarded as the "Eye of Ra" and was worshipped as "Great of Magic". She was known to protect her son Horus from snakes, predators and other dangers and thus she became known as a protector of mortal Children also. Isis is depicted here with protective wings outstretched on a hand painted hydrostone wall relief which measures 21.5" W x 7.5" H.
