| Description |
The eyes on this spectacular woman look
upwards, as if searching either the heavens or
her soul for answers to unspoken questions. The
issues that would have puzzled her in her own
age--about gods, men, their places in the
universe, the meanings of life and the mysteries
of death--have changed little with the centuries.
We can empathize with her because we too have
searched for answers.
