"Caecilia 1841-1941" is a 1941 drawing by Dutch artist Johan van Hell, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum. The work features a woman, likely Caecilia, depicted with a wreath of flowers around her head and a sprig of foliage in her hand. The delicate line work of the drawing and the woman's serene expression create a sense of peace, further emphasized by the dove flying above her head. The intricate architectural background, possibly a church, adds to the work's historical and spiritual atmosphere.
