The artwork, measuring 65x85 cm, is part of a private collection and features an exquisite combination of oil on glass, tortoiseshell, and ebony. Garofalo's masterpiece is one of four south Italian mythological reverse-glass paintings that depict various scenes from classical mythology. In this particular painting, we witness the triumphal moment of Galatea, a mythical sea nymph who has captured the hearts and minds of many with her beauty. The composition transports us into a dreamlike landscape where Galatea stands as the central figure amidst lush greenery and flowing rivers.
