EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, created by the renowned French Baroque artist Jacques Stella in 1625, depicts the Tiburtine Sibyl, a prophetess from ancient mythology. The sibyl is shown seated, dressed in elegant albunea clothing of the 17th century, with a flowing white robe adorned with intricate gold and black jewellery. Her long, curly hair cascades down her back, framing her serene face. The sibyl is holding a bowl, believed to symbolize her ability to divine the future. The print, now housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the artistic mastery of Jacques Stella during the Baroque era. The monochrome, black and white composition adds to the mystical and otherworldly atmosphere of the image, further emphasizing the sibyl's role as a seer and interpreter of the divine. The Tiburtine Sibyl was one of the ten Sibyls, revered in ancient Rome for their prophetic abilities. This woodcut print is a rare and valuable representation of this mythological figure, and serves as an important piece of heritage art from the 17th century. The intricate details of the sibyl's clothing, jewellery, and the delicate folds of her robe demonstrate Stella's exceptional skill as an artist, making this print a must-see for any art enthusiast or history buff.
