Art of the Lithograph: Saint Cecily, Plate XII

Alois Senefelder

Cleveland Museum of Art

A black-and-white lithograph on aged paper. A woman with medium-dark hair wears a long dress with a shawl around her shoulders and a crown-like headband. She has a halo drawn around her head. The woman wears a bracelet on her right wrist and holds a musical instrument called a lyre in both hands. She appears to be sitting on a throne. Behind her on the left are two cherubs. Behind her on the right is an ornate column. Above the image, the Roman numeral XII is printed. Below the image, cursive text reads 'Dessin au Crayon'. The artwork appears to be on a page in a book.
