About the piece

Painted in 1903 by Henri Fantin-Latour, this work titled 'Le Satyre' was inspired by the epic poetry of Victor Hugo. The painting exemplifies the artist's late-career style, characterized by a shimmering, soft-focus atmosphere and a hazy, lithographic-like texture that evokes a sense of romantic mystery and celestial grandeur.
