About this work

A painted mythological scene shows a winged figure with a red cap and caduceus descending through clouds above a group of reclining nymphs, one of whom cradles a small child. A rocky outcrop with a waterfall, a palm, and a goat occupy the setting, rendered in loose, vivid brushwork.
