EDITORS COMMENTS
The Capitoline Isis," a captivating masterpiece created by English artist John Cheere in the 1760s, presents a stunning depiction of the ancient Egyptian goddess Isis. This painted plaster sculpture, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in the United States, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of both Europe and the Americas during the eighteenth century. Isis, the goddess of motherhood, magic, and fertility, is depicted in this artwork with her typical attributes - a throne on her head in the form of a hieroglyphic representation of the throne of Hathor, and a scepter topped with an ankh, the symbol of life. The goddess's serene expression and the intricate details of her headdress and clothing reveal the artist's mastery of the Baroque style. The Capitoline Isis was likely inspired by a famous Roman marble statue of the goddess, which was discovered in Rome and housed in the Capitoline Museum. Cheere's interpretation of the statue, however, adds a unique touch with its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. This artwork not only showcases the artistic prowess of John Cheere but also highlights the fascination with ancient Egyptian mythology and heritage that transcended geographical boundaries during the eighteenth century. The Capitoline Isis serves as a testament to the global exchange of ideas and the enduring influence of the past on European and American art. The Capitoline Isis, now a cherished addition to LACMA's extensive collection, continues to captivate visitors with its intricate details, rich history, and the timeless allure of the goddess Isis.
