History of the Neptune Waistcoat
Mythological composition reflecting the sophisticated taste of the period. Neptune's chariot, Venus and Cupid, the blacksmith Amours, Jupiter's eagle, dolphins, tritons, horns of plenty, it's all there. Intended to furnish large panels of woodwork, the balance of garlands and medallions develops majestically when assembled with the next panel. Neptune has been the subject of numerous printed canvases.
