Fourth Hour of the Night, from Raphael's Hours
An engraving shows a woman floating against a dark sky, her flowing drapery swept around her as she cradles a small child and raises one arm toward a glowing disc above. Below, a framed strip shows a tortoise, a bird, a cat-like animal, and plants, with an Italian inscription beneath.
