Second Foolish Virgin

Martin Schongauer

National Gallery of Art

The image features a person standing in a slightly sideways position with their head turned downward. The person has delicate facial features and a gentle expression, with hair styled neatly back. They are wearing a long, flowing garment, holding a small, cylindrical object in one hand. The background is plain, and there is an intricate circular design on the ground at the bottom of the image.
