About this work

A classical garden scene shows a young man in a yellow tunic and a woman in a pink dress drawing a bow together, while a boy in blue draws his own bow from a stone-paved path. White marble sphinxes, a carved vase, and a relief fountain frame the terrace, with a distant coastal town and sea beyond. Henryk Siemiradzki painted this work in 1880, and it is held by the Pereslavl-Zalessky Museum-Preserve.
