La regina di Saba

Odilon Redon, 1896–1900

The image depicts an individual shown from the waist up, seated in a relaxed position with eyes seemingly closed or gazing downward. The person has long, dark hair adorned with an ornate headpiece decorated with floral patterns. Their facial features include a softly contoured face with subtle shading to indicate eyebrows and lips. The person appears to be unclothed, with minimal lines suggesting the outline of the torso and arms. To the right of the person, an animal, resembling a cat, is rendered. The background of the image is plain and off-white. The artwork is rendered in a loose, sketch-like style with bold black lines.
