Image description

This work by Eckersberg, made when the artist first arrived in Rome, is a good example of the lessons (earned in David’s studio. The sober palette, the figure who stands out from the background (ike a low-relief sculpture, and the constrained emotions make this painting a paragon of neoclassicism. The mythological subject, taken from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, is Alcyone bidding farewell to her husband, the king Ceyx, who is about to embark on an ill-fated journey.
