Description:

Fresco from the Temple of Isis (VIII.7.28) in Pompeii depicting the discovery of the boat with the coffin of Osiris, on the east wall of Sacrarium (an inner room meant for storing cult objects). In between the busts of two river gods there are two reed boats, on the left of which Isis is trolling with a rope the right boat on which there is a square case with a falcon painted on it. Below the boat scene, two serpents are moving towards a wicker basket with a conical lid which has a crescent moon symbol on it. The cult of Isis was part of the syncretic tendencies of religion in the Greco-Roman world of late antiquity; the Romans having acquired it from the Hellenistic Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt.
