Sibylla Cimmeria

About this work

This woodcut image depicts a woman dressed in a long robe, with a cloak draped over her left shoulder. She is seated, holding a bouquet of flowers in her right hand, and is barefoot. The woman's hair is styled in a bun, and she wears a veil that falls down her back. In the background, a building is visible on the right side of the image, while the left side features a cloud and a beam of light. The woman's attire and the bouquet of flowers she holds suggest that she may be a figure from mythology or allegory. The image is rendered in a detailed and intricate style, with fine lines and textures that give it a sense of depth and dimensionality.
