Painting of a nude young man shading his eyes beside a draped figure and a veiled, crouching figure, against a dark hillside with a ruined castle.

Perseus and the Graiae

A nude young man stands at right, shading his eyes with one hand, while a pale, draped figure in the center gazes downward and a veiled figure crouches at left near a stone ledge. A dusky hillside with a ruined castle silhouette fills the muted grey and brown background.

Español: Perseo y las Greas

Un joven desnudo se encuentra a la derecha, cubriéndose los ojos con una mano, mientras una figura pálida y drapeada en el centro mira hacia abajo y una figura velada se agacha a la izquierda junto a un borde de piedra. Una ladera oscura con la silueta de un castillo en ruinas llena el fondo de tonos grises y pardos apagados.

Português: Perseu e as Greias

Um jovem nu está à direita, protegendo os olhos com uma das mãos, enquanto uma figura pálida e drapeada no centro olha para baixo e uma figura velada se agacha à esquerda, junto a uma borda de pedra. Uma encosta escura com a silhueta de um castelo em ruínas preenche o fundo de tons cinzentos e marrons apagados.
