- Abstract
-
"The interior of an artist's studio. A young man is seated in an armchair at his easel, with palette and brushes. On the canvas is a classical scene: a goddess surrounded by naked infants. His nude model (right) reclines sleepily on a sofa (right), holding a piece of drapery. Her hat, shoes, and garments are beside her. Two men enter (left) through a door: a young man in riding-dress who stares at the model, an elderly man who holds up his hand in apparent disapproval. The painter turns round as if to prevent their entry. On the wall sketches are pinned (suggesting the art of the history-painter). There is also a statuette on a bracket (right). The room is lit by a window on the painter's left."--British Museum online catalogue
