About this work

This painting shows a woman in a white robe, with her head bowed and hands clasped together. She's sitting on a wheel, which is a common symbol in art. In the background, there are some buildings and a cloudy sky. The woman's robes are flowing, and her face is serene. The wheel is old and worn, with some cracks and scratches on it. The overall mood of the painting is peaceful and contemplative. If you like this painting, you might want to check out more works by Coelemans, Jacobus.
