Clymene Urging Phaeton to Find Helios
This is an illustration of a scene under a tree with figures pointing toward the sky. In the foreground, there are several figures, including a woman gesturing upwards. She is sitting at the base of a large tree, with branches spreading across the top. Another figure embraces her. Two additional figures are on the left side of the scene on a path leading into the distance where there's architecture nestled within rolling hills. The sky has clouds and a radiant celestial group, emphasized by lines indicating light or radiance. The intricate line work captures the detailed texture of the scene.
