Summary

Description
English: Louis Hector Leroux, La Sibylle de Cumes (The Sibyl of Cumae), by 1900, private collection. Leroux's painting of a Sibyl, one of the legendary oracles of the ancient world, carried on the tradition of painters including Michelangelo and Guercino, but with authentic ancient furnishing and costume; instead of an anachronistic codex, the Sibyl's prophetic books are scrolls contained in a cylindrical Roman capsa.
