Brunnhild

Gaston Bussiere

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a woman with long red hair and a crown on her head. She wears a sleeveless dress and holds a sword in her right hand and a shield in her left. The woman's crown has a flame design on it, and she has blue jewels on her face, necklace, and cuffs. A banner above her head reads "BRUNNHILD". The background shows a landscape with trees, a body of water, and a dark sky with pink and orange hues, suggesting a sunset or sunrise. There are also flames rising from the ground behind her. The artist's signature "G.Bussiere" is in the bottom-right corner. The image has a decorative border with a flower in the top-left corner.
