Brown etching of a seated woman in a headdress resting her arm on a garland-carved pedestal, with a peacock at the right edge.

Juno and the Peacock

A seated woman in a draped gown and headdress leans her arm on a carved pedestal decorated with a garland, while a peacock appears at the right edge of the composition. The brown-toned etching and aquatint shows soft tonal shading across the fabric and a plain interior setting, consistent with the record's title.
