The Global Egyptian Museum

Isis aparece representada como una mujer  de talle fino, con el jeroglífico de su nombre sobre la cabeza. Está arrodillada y sentada sobre los talones. El gesto que realiza con sus manos representa el acto simbólico de cubrirse la cara o de arrojarse polvo sobre la cabeza como signo de tristeza, ya que es la imagen arquetipo de Isis  como plañidera divina por la muerte de su esposo Osiris.

Isis is represented as wasp-waisted woman with the hieroglyphics of her name over her head. She is kneeling and sitting on her heels. The gesture she is making with her hands represents the symbolic act of covering her face or throwing pwoder over her head as a sign of sadness. This is the archetypal image of Isis as divine mourner for her deceased husband Osirus.
