Description
Image is of roses in a vase with an image of Sor Juana. A red curtain and a rosary hang from the upper portion of the print. Beside the vase are a stack of books and a framed image of a brain imprisoned by brambles. Text in script in the lower right corner reads, "Liberty itself for me is no boon: If I hold it such, it will soon be my bane. No more worries for me over boons so uncertian [sic]: I will own my very soul, as if it [illegible]".
