Arnold Böcklin's 1866 painting *Nymphe with Horn of Plenty* depicts a nude female figure, possibly a nymph, standing by a cliff. She holds a cornucopia, overflowing with flowers, and a long, thin stem, representing the abundance of nature. This painting is characteristic of Böcklin's Symbolist style, often featuring mythical figures in dreamlike settings, evoking a sense of mystery and beauty. The artwork is painted with a loose brushstroke and earthy tones, creating a sense of romanticism and melancholy.
