Cleveland Museum of Art

Medieval-style illustration of a group of people in ornate clothing. The scene features a woman lying on a red couch wearing a blue dress and white head covering, with one arm raised and one hand on the couch. A woman in red sits on a chair to the right of the couch holding a bird on her hand. Several women surround the couch, some wearing crowns, in dresses with gold, blue, and orange patterns. A brown octagonal table with gold accents is between the couch and the seated woman on the right. The background includes a patterned wall with blue, gold, and red designs, and a row of arches with small figures. The floor features a patterned rug with red, blue, and gold. The overall color palette includes blue, red, gold, white, and brown. The style appears to be from the medieval period. The title is "Leaf from a Cocharelli Treatise on the Vices: Acedia and Her Court".
