La Femme sur la Bête. Apoc. XVII 

"La Femme sur la Bête. Apoc. XVII" is a medieval manuscript illumination by Facundus, a 11th-century artist. The artwork depicts a woman, likely representing the Whore of Babylon, riding a beast with seven heads and ten horns, as described in the Book of Revelation. The woman holds a chalice, symbolizing the sins of humanity, and the beast represents the forces of evil. The illumination is characterized by its bold colors and linear style, typical of manuscript art of the period. The Latin inscription at the top of the image reads "Ubi mulier sedet super bestia," which translates to "Where the woman sits upon the beast." This artwork is an example of the rich tradition of religious art in the Middle Ages, and it reflects the profound impact of the Book of Revelation on Christian belief and imagery.
