Salmacis and Hermaphroditus, Johannes or Lucas van Doetechum, 1653 - 1654 Canvas Print

The nymph Salmacis stands at a monument in a landscape with a palace garden. She looks up to the clouds where Mercury, Venus and Amor appear. In the background, Salmacis embraces Hermaphroditus. She falls in love with him and clung to him with such passion that their bodies merge. Below the performance the text from the Metamorphoses of Ovid, book 4, verses 385-386. At the top the sign of Gemini from the zodiac. The print is part of an album.
