One character can play many parts 

In previous posts, I have alluded to the possibility that the lady on top of this frontispiece could be the goddess Flora or Themis.  This time, based on her attire, I am looking at the possibility that she could represent the goddess Artemis. Some observations: 

  • Corset or zona  - with a similar outline to the item on the bottom right plinthe
  • Other attire – long blue dress and red robe
  • Mushroom  effect / colour – chanterelle or leather tan
