Statue of Isis at The Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto

myminifactory

(From Museum text) This statue of Isis, the Egyptian goddess of fertility and rebirth, comes from her temple in Pompeii. Here the exotic, foreign appeal of an Egyptian goddess is adapted to the ROman tastes by giving her Greek-style clothes and hair. She still carries an ankh (Egyptian symbol of life). On loan. Originally from the National Archaeology museum of Pomeii.   This object is part of "Scan The World".
