Nut is supported by Shu the god of air, and the ram-headed Heh deities, while Geb reclines beneath. Book of the Dead of Nesitanebtashru. British Museum.

The Merry Maidens stone circle the day after visiting the 'Between Worlds' Ithell Colquhoun exhibition at Tate St Ives. A breast-like formation of clouds appears suspended over the circle

Illustration showing a giant female figure - the Egyptian sky goddess, Nut - poised on tiptoe and her fingertips, arched over four figures. Three of the figures encompassed by her arched body are standing, the fourth reclines on the ground. The central standing figure has his arms upraised to the sky/Nut's body, each of his hands with open palms gesturing to the pubic region of Nut on one side, and her pendulous breasts on the other. He is flanked by two horned, ram-headed figures with their arms extended towards him, as if to support his upraised arms.
Framed by two outlying, earthfast boulders, in the distance can be seen the grey stones of the Merry Maidens stone circle, standing out in a grassy, green pasture under a grey, cloudy sky. An undulant, breast-like pattern of grey cloud hovers over the circle
