About the piece
Created in 1851 by Baltic German painter Julie Wilhelmine Hagen-Schwarz, this oil study captures the evocative interplay between sculpted stone and wild nature. The composition features two faun figures adornment an ornate fountain, partially hidden by a dense growth of large, leafy plants that bring a sense of secret-garden intimacy and classical mystery to the work.
