Abstract
Sitting on a curved balustrade, in between pillars, a woman plays a triangle. The triangle has a slight trapezoidal shape. The triangle is extraordinarily large relative to the woman’s arm and torso. This image is unique in that it is perhaps one of the largest triangles seen in iconography, relative to the triangle player.
