Isis over Osiris's remains

Description

This painting was illustration for an Egyptian Legend, the story of Osiris, who was murdered by the jealous Seth. Upon completing his task, Seth had then managed to dump Osiris's remains into the Nile. Osiris's wife Isis, then took it upon herself to find husband at all costs.

The image is my interpretation of the moment that she does indeed find him. According to the story, when she encountered his coffin, she then proceeded to throw herself over it, painfully mourning her loss.

The painting was drawn in pencil on cold press water color paper and then painted with opaque water color paints.
