Trying to shoe-horn in a link to and my Covid vaccination (as only I would do) leaves me with a fresco of a medical procedure—Aeneas having an arrowhead removed from his leg—and enemas discovered in the House of the Surgeon. Yikes.

There was another famous Sibyl I bumped into once,the Sibyl of Cumae, near Naples, as consulted by Aeneas, referenced by Ovid and Petronius. Painted by Domenichino (Domenico Zampieri)(1581-1641), and Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel (sometimes I wonder how much M liked women😏)

Hey, before it's too late: post the drawing you're happiest with out of the whole year!
