Summary

Painting of the Neoplatonist philosopher Hypatia, seated. Her right hand is holding a quill and a scroll. Her right arm is resting on a philosopher's bust. Seven other scrolls are on a table. Greek-style artwork is painted on the wall below the window. The view from the window, presumably intended to show Alexandria, also reveals a church procession, with a cross being wielded.
