"Luna" is a 16th-century engraving by German Renaissance artist Heinrich Aldegrever. The artwork depicts the Roman goddess Luna, personifying the moon, as a woman in contemporary dress, standing in an arched doorway. The inscription "LUNA" is visible at the top left of the print. Luna is depicted holding a crescent moon, with the moon reflecting in a window to the right of her, behind the figure of a seated woman. The detailed engraving style of the artwork is typical of Aldegrever's work, capturing the delicate features of the goddess and the intricate patterns of her dress.
