Goddess Isis in Ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman Art

14 days ago

Goddess Isis was not only one of the most important deities of ancient Egypt, but also Her cult spread throughout the Roman Empire.
She was a principal deity in rites connected with the dead.
She was a magical healer who cured the sick and brought the deceased to life.
As mother, She was a role model for all women.
Isis is still revered by peace-loving minds today.

I hope this collection of ancient Egyptian, Greco-Roman, and modern artworks will be a source of your inspiration and solace.
