You see a woman standing, dressed in flowing robes. She's holding an anchor, which is a symbol of hope. This painting is interesting because it's part of a series that personifies virtues like hope and faith. The series is based on Christian concepts from the Bible. These concepts were important to people in the 15th century. Check out the work of the Master of the E-Series Tarocchi.
