Sanctuary of the Goddess Isis at Philae (now on the Agilkia island):
one of the thirteen windows of the Western Colonnade looking toward Abaton, the highly sacred Island of Osiris.
On the wall, Osiris Onnophri standing above five lotus-flowers, holding the 'Ankh' (Life) and the 'Uas'-scepter.
Because of the displacement of the Sanctuary of Isis from the sacred Island of Philae to the Agilkia Island (located north of Abaton), now the Island of Abaton (located west of Philae, but south of Agilkia) is no more visible through these windows
