Lilith

Lilith is a figure of Jewish mythology, who is probably linked to a class of ancient Mesopotamian female demons. In some later sources, she is considered the first woman, who was created at the same time and from the same earth as Adam. She symbolizes strength and pride. In this mixed media painting on wood, Lilith is depicted standing on a reddish-brown pedestal. Her white sculpture-like figure stands out on the dark background that enhances the three-dimensional effect of this composition.
