watercolour illustration
This etching, "Woman with Left Profile," created by Jean Mignon, depicts a female figure standing on a pedestal. The woman is draped in fabric, holding a fold of the cloth to her chest, while her gaze appears contemplative. She is surrounded by ornate decorative elements, including a circular garland of flowers, and two birds perched on stylized pedestals adorned with flowering plants. This composition, with its emphasis on decorative elements, is characteristic of the Mannerist style prevalent during the 16th century.
