In this unusual subject for Aelbert Cuyp, the mythical musician Orpheus sits playing while lions, deer, birds and cattle gather, tamed by his song. Cuyp fills the scene with the same golden calm as his river landscapes, so that myth and Dutch light meet in one enchanted clearing. It hangs in the gallery at Dessau.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

I wanted something for the nursery that nobody else would have, and this is it. The shading in Orpheus has a depth I never noticed in books. It made it through hurricane season on the coast with no problems at all. I will absolutely be ordering from here again.
Four stars because it is excellent and I paid a little more than I wanted to. I have wanted a good version of Orpheus for a long time and this is very close. The finish looks even across the entire surface. It works in the home office without fighting anything else in there. It has become one of my favorite things in the house.
This looks like something that cost twice what it did. I have wanted a good version of Orpheus for a long time and this is very close.
It landed on my porch in perfect condition two days early. Every line in Orpheus is crisp, even in the busiest areas. Five stars without hesitation…
It has completely changed how the dining room feels. This one is staying with us a long time.
Wonderful to read, thank you. We put a lot of thought into how these are packed, so it is good to know that came through.
