Omnia Vincit Amor [Apollo and Daphne]

Robert van Audenaerd, after Carlo Maratta

National Gallery of Art

The image features multiple classical figures in dynamic poses. Most figures are shown full-bodied, with some overlapping or partially hidden. The central group includes male and female figures engaged in various activities. The figures have classical facial features and flowing hair, depicted in an idealized form. They are mostly nude, with some drapery covering certain parts. Trees, a cherubic figure, and a flowing water stream are also depicted. In the background, there is a landscape with hills and clouds.
