A colleague needs quickly to locate an image he remembers seeing of a woman with a distaff stuck in her headdress. I'm sure I've seen this one too -- I have a vague impression that she was walking or going about other work, with a very small distaff stuck into a hat or turban or wrapped veil.

Does this ring any bells for anyone?

We don't need a reproducible image, just a citation, to the original manuscript or a secondary source.

Please feel free to forward this request elsewhere, if you know of someone who might have the answer offhand.

Thanks,

Robin
