Bacchanales: Nymph Supported by Two Satyrs

Jean-Honoré Fragonard

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of three figures in a wooded area. A nude female figure stands supported by two kneeling male figures with goat-like features. Her right leg is bent behind her, her left leg is straight down. The two male figures face each other. She looks down to her right. They have beards and pointy ears. There is dense foliage on either side of the group, leaves and plants. The background behind the foliage appears to have a fence or wall. The overall scene is rendered in detailed, hatching lines. The image is oval shaped, with a border around it, on a white background.
