This engraving by Dutch artist Jacobus Millies, dated 1777-1813, depicts a headless statue of a winged woman. The figure stands on a pedestal adorned with elaborate ornamentation, possibly a fragment from an ancient Roman or Greek structure. Millies is known for his detailed drawings of architectural elements and sculptures, which likely served as visual documentation for scholars and collectors. The artwork's focus on classical forms and meticulous detail reflects the enduring fascination with antiquity during the Neoclassical period.
