According to Greek mythology, the god Zeus fell in love with the beautiful youth Ganymede. Taking the form of an eagle, Zeus carried him to Mount Olympus, where he became a cup-bearer to the gods. The artist lived for many years in Rome and tried to imitate ancient wall paintings. He made this sketch in preparation for an experimental fresco.
