Guillaume Le Rouge

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an illustration of a scene with three people, two women and a child, in an ornate gold frame. The woman on the left wears a blue dress with gold stars and a gold head covering. She faces the woman on the right and extends her right hand. The woman on the right wears a brown dress and a red and white head covering. She holds the hand of the woman on the left with both of her hands. A small white-clad figure with wings floats beside the woman on the left. The frame has green pillars on either side. At the top, gold rays emanate from a sunburst above the heads of the three figures. In the background, a green hill leads to a blue and white building and a blue sky. Below the illustration, a blue and gold rectangle with a floral design sits on the left. Black text fills the rest of the space on the right. A blue banner reads "BENEDICTA TV IN MULIERIB."
