Description
Photograph of the painting "The Sorceress" by Horowitz, depicting a woman gesturing over a cauldron, [s.d.]. The woman stands behind the small cauldron at center, her dress hanging down around her waist, exposing her chest. Vapor rises from the pot, and the position of her right hand next to her face suggests that she is wafting it towards her. The other arm is outstretched by her side. Behind her, a collection of rocks appear to form a riverbed, the water running off into the distance.
