Description
Sor Juana wears a handkerchief veil and a manta like that of la Virgen de Guadalupe. From her head sprout two fiery roses. Text in the sky next to her reads, "plucking courage up from her very [illegible], she resolved, rebelling once again to see herself made sovereign in that half of the globe left unprotected from the sun...". Text running along the outside of her manta reads, "If There's One Thing Drives The Devil Up A Tree, Its Hearing Of A Woman Who's Smarter Than He...". Text on her handkerchief reads, "tears and sighs dissolve my heart and soul together, the soul reducing to wind, turning the heart to water". The artist of any work retains all rights to that work.
