In art, originally Isis was pictured as a woman wearing a long sheath dress and crowned with the hieroglyphic sign for a throne. Sometimes she was depicted as holding a lotus, or, as a Sycamore tree. One pharaoh, Hatshepsut, was depicted in her tomb as nursing from a sycamore tree that had a breast.

The Goddess Isis, wall painting, c. 1360 B.C.
Représentation : Femme coiffée d'un haut dossier.

L’une des principales divinités. Protectrice du bien-être des naissances, des navigateurs et de l’Etat. Elle joue un rôle fondamental dans le mythe d’Osiris, son époux tué et démembré par son frère Seth, dont elle réussit à réunir les membres, lui redonnant vie et concevant avec lui leur fils Horus.

"Under your white stars", a prayer-lyric, written by Israeli-Yiddish poet Abraham Sutsever, the bard of the Vilna Ghetto.

This portrait touches me – A man who loves animals is a good man.
Un homme qui aime les animaux, c’est quelqu’un qui sait être..

I am very happy about the commentaries of this journalist; it is confirms what I thought. Dylan is an artist who still creates, day and night; it is "formidable" because we are witness of this and we can directrly appreciate it. The effort and the result are tremendous.
