"Isis, de godin met de duizend namen, of de natuur gepersonifieerd" is an engraving created by Jean-Baptiste-Blaise Simonet in 1792. The artwork depicts the Egyptian goddess Isis, standing in the sea and holding a staff in her right hand. She wears a long, flowing robe decorated with stars, signifying her connection to the cosmos. The image of Isis standing in the sea, with a starry sky above, is a powerful visual representation of nature personified. This engraving is a classic example of Neoclassical art, which emphasized themes of reason, order, and beauty.
