About the piece

Painted around 1900 by Édouard Rosset-Granger, this work depicts the legendary Orpheus charming both humans and beasts with his music. The composition features a soft, atmospheric light that bathes the figures and the resting tiger in a romantic glow, characteristic of late 19th-century academic classicism.
