The exhibition explores the archetype of the mystical feminine. Through portraits and narrative scenes, it illuminates how women, often constrained by societal rules, found alternative channels to wield influence: through prophecy, alchemy, divination, and symbolic authority.
The Veil and the Scepter is an exploration of feminine power at the threshold between the mystical and the mortal. Each depiction represents women who held sway through the unseen.
