The Dream of Happiness

Pierre-Paul Prud'hon

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Dream of Happiness by Pierre-Paul Prud'hon: A painting of a boat on water with five people. A man with wings behind his back sits at the back of a boat on the left. A woman wearing a white dress lies on a blue cloth in the middle of the boat with a baby on her chest. A man lies beside her, and a woman wearing a blue dress sits on the right side of the boat holding a baby. A woman wearing a pink dress sits at the front of the boat holding an oar. The background features trees and a cloudy sky. The boat is on a body of water, possibly a river or lake. The overall mood of the scene is serene and peaceful.
