The delicate lace ruff around her neck adds a touch of sophistication, while the painted glass brooch with her own likeness reflects her personal style and individuality.
In her hands, she holds a prayer book bound in painted parchment, highlighting her devotion to faith and spirituality. The Lower Franconian artist who created this masterpiece has expertly captured not only the physical appearance of the maiden but also her inner grace and poise.
