The artwork showcases a female standing tall with poise and grace, embodying the concept of chastity. Aldegrever's artistic skill shines through as he masterfully captures every intricate detail. The woman's flowing gown drapes elegantly around her, while her gaze exudes determination and resilience. Holding a lance firmly in her hand, she symbolizes both purity and protection. The Latin text delicately lettered at the bottom adds depth to this historic piece. Its lower case script invites viewers to ponder its meaning further.
