"Sibylle" is a black and white engraving by the German artist Simon Petrus Klotz, who was active between 1776 and 1824. The artwork depicts a seated Sibyl, a prophetess in ancient Greek and Roman mythology, holding a stylus and writing on a stack of parchment. The Sibyl appears contemplative and wise, situated in a cavern-like setting. Klotz's detailed engraving brings a sense of realism to the Sibyl and her surroundings, showcasing the artist's mastery of technique. The artwork is a testament to the enduring power of mythology and the role of female figures in ancient cultures.
