Wierd-Sisters; Ministers of Darkness; Minions of the Moon

Britische Grafik 1790–1796, 1791

The image shows the profiles of three individuals positioned closely together, gazing ahead. Each person has distinct facial features. The first person has a prominent nose and wears a patterned shawl, the second person has delicate features with rosy cheeks and gray hair styled backward, while the third person has a long, slender nose and thick eyebrows, with voluminous, curly hair and a beard. They wear cloaks. The background features a cloudy, moonlit sky with a large moon visible in the distance. The scene is set at night.
