About this work

This painting depicts a scene with multiple figures and elements. In the center, a man and woman sit together, embracing each other. The man is shirtless, wearing a red cloth draped over his left shoulder, while the woman wears a yellow dress with a blue and white skirt. Between them stands an eagle, its talons grasping a lightning bolt. To the left, two winged figures are present: one holding a torch and the other with a lit flame. The background of the painting features a landscape with a mountain, likely Ida, and a peacock flying above the figures. The overall atmosphere is one of intimacy and connection between the central couple, surrounded by symbolic elements.
