Lezende Sibille met kind after 1516

This engraving, "Lezende Sibille met kind," depicts a seated Sibyl, a female prophetess, reading from a book. A young child holding a torch stands before her, illuminating the scene. The Sibyl's focused gaze and the child's attentive pose suggest a moment of instruction or prophecy, while the use of light and shadow adds depth and drama. Created after 1516 by an anonymous artist, this artwork embodies the style of the Northern Renaissance, demonstrating the increasing interest in realism and detail.
