Dressed in an exquisite 18th-century attire with a regal helmet adorning her head, she exudes power and strength. The artist skillfully captures her mythical figure in profile, highlighting her warrior-like qualities. Thalestris is a prominent figure in Greek mythology and this portrait brings her to life with remarkable detail. As the queen of a fierce tribe of female warriors known as the Amazons, she symbolizes independence and courage. Her stoic expression hints at the battles she has fought and won. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this artwork from the eighteenth century. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone but not forgotten. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece.
