Created in 1403, this illustration is part of the manuscript De Claris mulieribus, traduction anonyme en francais (Livre des femmes nobles et renommees) by Giovanni Boccaccio, which can be found at the Bibliotheque nationale de France in Paris. The image depicts a woman dressed in a vibrant red gown, her hands delicately holding a hammer and chisel. With an air of intensity and focus, she appears to be sculpting something meaningful and profound. The dramatic lighting highlights every detail on her face, emphasizing her determination and skill. As we delve into this artwork from the 15th century, we are transported back to a time when religious themes played an integral role in artistic expression.

It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with religion throughout centuries past. Through this stunning portrayal of Marcia - Vierge Perpetuelle, we are invited to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural importance within our shared human history.
