Dear listmembers:
I have recently come across a 16th c. tapestry with a strange
depiction of the Trinity: it is a three-headed woman with a halo surrounding
her heads and another one around her right hand. I saw it in a bad photo, so
I first assumed that it was the personification of Prudence; but when I
finally got a good detail I could read an inscription identifying the
figure as TRINITAS. Anything to do with the 'God as mother' discussion?
Thanks for any idea!
Carlos
