Moon

Theodor de Bry, after Sebald Beham

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person standing upright in a frontal position. They have short, curly hair and a classic facial expression. The person is wearing a draped garment that falls above their knees, cinched at the waist. They are holding a crescent moon with a face in one hand and a long staff in the other. A floating ribbon above their head reads "LVNA." The person is barefoot, with no visible jewelry. The background consists of swirling clouds. The engraving includes the initials "I-SB" in the bottom left corner and the words "NOCTIS DOMINA" at the bottom.
