Le Poète et la Muse
Fantin-Latour, Henri, 1836-1904 · 1883
In the foreground, the Poet sits at his desk; a book, supported by a stack of other volumes, is open before him. An antique lamp lends it its light. His quill is suspended, his cheek leans lightly against his hand and he seems to be thinking deeply. Behind him, the Muse is sitting in the air. His right hand is resting on his lyre, his left hand holds a palm.
