She clutches a bundle of scrolls to her side under one arm and grips a staff in her outstretched hand; her white robe has slipped from one shoulder, and she wears a beaded necklace, a hoop earring, an armlet and sandals bound at the ankle. Smoke drifts low across the grass behind her, below snow-capped mountains and heaped cloud. Signed and dated Rome 1876 at the lower right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe subject is the sibyl of Roman legend who came to King Tarquin with nine books of prophecy. When he refused her price she burned three, then three more, and he finally bought the last three for the sum first asked; they became the Sibylline Books consulted by Rome.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: oil on canvas, 1876, Detroit Institute of Arts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElihu Vedder (1836–1923) was an American Symbolist painter who settled in Rome after the Civil War and lived there for most of his career. Trained in New York under Tompkins H. Matteson and in Paris under François-Édouard Picot, he painted sphinxes, sibyls and cosmic allegories, and produced fifty-five illustrations for the 1884 deluxe edition of FitzGerald's translation of the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám, a publishing success.
