The youthful god, son of Isis and Osiris, is here shown in his distinctive pose bringing the right index finger to his mouth. In this pantheistic version, however, different attributes, normally associated with other deities, have been added such as the wings of Cupid, the winged sandals of Mercury, Fortuna's cornucopia and Hercules' lion skin. For another example of pantheistic Harpocrates with wings see T. T. Tihn, B. Jaeger and S. Puolin, 'Harpokrates', in LIMC, vol. IV, Zurich and Munich, 1988, no. 11b.
