About this work

A painting titled Polyphemus and Galatea by Herman van Swanevelt shows a seated, muscular figure on a rocky cliff above a herd of cattle and sheep, gesturing toward a sea scene. In the water, a nude woman stands in a shell-shaped boat with a blue drape while nymphs and cupids surround her. The landscape recedes to distant mountains under a dramatic cloudy sky.
