The Queen of Sheba
This exquisite watercolor by Edmund Dulac illustrates the legendary Queen of Sheba delicately seated atop a camel adorned with luxurious silks and intricate patterns. The queen, enigmatic and serene, reclines in a howdah embellished with gold and lapis, surveying her surroundings with a dignified air. The artwork captures an enchanting narrative as the royal entourage progresses through an arid landscape, drawing inspiration from Persian miniatures and manuscript illustrations of the golden age of British book illustration.
- The arid landscape and sky have large areas of similar color which may pose a challenge.
- The intricate details and vibrant patterns on the queen's attire and the camel's adornments provide distinct sections to aid assembly.
