A Female with a Lyre is a 1911 unspecified by George William Russell, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
This painting shows a woman with a lyre, but it's hard to make out any details because it's so blurry. The woman is wearing a long dress and has her hair down. She's holding the lyre in her left hand and has her right hand on the strings. The background is dark and mottled, with some lighter spots that might be trees or clouds. The painting is very faded and hard to see, but it looks like it might have been done in a style that was popular a long time ago. The colors are all muted and the lines are soft.
