La Mèlancolie by Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione: Black and white image of a woman sitting on a rocky ledge. The woman has her elbow on her knee and her head on her hand, looking down. She wears a robe that hangs off her shoulder and has a stylized hairdo. The rocky ledge is surrounded by trees and foliage. A stone archway is behind the woman. Several animals are on the right side: a peacock, a goat, a ram and a kid. Various objects are scattered in front of the woman: a globe, a celestial sphere, a hat and books.
