. This mesmerizing print captures Wilhelm List's masterpiece, "The Offering" painted around 1900. The oil on canvas artwork, measuring an impressive 162.5x82 cm, can be found at the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Quimper, France. In this enchanting scene, a female figure stands before us with outstretched arms and closed eyes.
