Relief inspired Greenfield Papyrus, XXI Dynasty, Egypt.
The goddess Nut, it is usually depicted as a naked woman with body arched like a night sky, covered with stars. Sometimes as a cow (Mehet-Urt) or her husband Geb (Earth) and his father Shu (air and light) trying to separate (graphic representation of the myth). His limbs symbolize the four pillars on which rests heaven.
