Orpheus and Cerberus

Ferdinand Tietz

Tan-colored stone sculpture of a man with curly hair playing a lute. The man is nude with a cloth wrapped around his waist. The man is standing on a short rectangular base with a dog sitting on the base to his right. The dog has its head up and alert. The man with his eyes cast upward and to the right appears to be singing as he plays the lute. The background of the image transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
