Two of these pictures are in the Museo del Prado, at Madrid. They are a "Festoon of Flowers and Fruits with a Medallion in the Centre, on which is a Landscape"; and a "Garland of Flowers with a Similar Medallion." <b>ZIESENSIS, MARGARETTA.</b> There were few women artists in the Scandinavian countries in the early years of the eighteenth century.
