Image description

The worship of Isis is depicted in this wall-painting from Herculaneum. The high priest stands at the entrance to the temple and looks down on the ceremony beneath him, which is supervised by priests with shaven heads. One priest tends the sacred fire and another behind him leads the faithful in worship. In the foreground of the painting can be seen two ibises, sacred to Isis, and to the right is a flautist.
