The river Nile, in human form, appears in the lower left corner. Isis sits on his left shoulder with horns sprouting from her forehead. Isis sits in the lower right corner, clasping Io's right hand in her right. A snake, possibly a cobra, twines around Isis's left arm. Two attendants stand behind Isis. The both attendants carry a sistrum in their right hands. The attendant on the left holds a caduceus in the left hand while a small metal pot dangles from the attendant's left wrist.

Io (with horns), carried by the river Nile, arrives in Egypt (1sr century AD). Fresco from Pompeii, Temple of Isis. Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli (inv. nr. 9558).
