Personification of Friendship (Amicitia) [fol. 2 recto]

French early 16th Century

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a young woman standing with a slight lean to her right. She has long, flowing light-colored hair, wearing red and beige robes with her chest partially exposed, touching an injury on her chest. She wears a headband with a central element across her forehead, and is barefoot on a plain, off-white parchment background with faint handwritten text.
