Scope | Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Tiburtine Sibyl |
Used in | Global usage |
Reason | The basic details of this somewhat odd mediaeval legend is that the Tiburtine sibyl showed the Emperor Augustus a vision of the Christian Heaven. I think this is the clearest of the images we have, showing all the basic elements. The other images are either too complex to be clear in thumbnail, do not show all the elements, or aren't as well drawn - though I would understand if someone wanted to put this up against one of the more colourful images for head-to-head voting. This is a 16th century chiascuro woodbloock print, which I realise we don't see much on Commons, but I believe this is of high artistic merit for this type of art. -- Adam Cuerden (talk) |
