Scenes of Witchcraft: Morning

A circular mythological scene presents a richly dressed woman crouched beside a rocky pool, defending herself against a swarm of immense, birdlike creatures. A pale bird spreads its wings at the center while darker forms press in from the surrounding marsh and cliff, creating a tightly staged confrontation beneath a storm-muted sky. The theatrical lighting, rugged landscape, and animated gestures recall late Baroque history painting, with the tondo format intensifying the sense of enclosure and peril.
