About this work

A simply dressed woman sits sleeping. Beside her lies a donkey, above her flies a little devil, behind her sits another. Below the image the Latin term for the sin personified by the woman. This print is part of a series of seven prints in which the seven deadly sins are depicted as allegorical figures.
