Description
An owl in courtly lace, the irony of a refined portrait — must scholarship come with so hard a beak? A figure with a woman's body and the head of a great horned owl, dressed in an ornate navy gown of tiny flowers with a wide lace ruff; she cradles a green apple like a relic; the background a deep black.
