关于这幅画

The subject is taken from the Metamorphoses, a series of mythological tales in verse by the ancient Roman poet Ovid, which was a favourite source for Wilson in his later years.

It shows the artist at the height of his powers, reinterpreting the classical landscape of Claude Lorrain in seventeenth-century Italy for a late eighteenth-century British audience.

The ruined building appears in other compositions by Wilson, and is recorded in his 1752 Italian sketchbook, also in the V&A collection; it has been identified as an ancient tomb known as the Sedia di Diavolo, in the Roman Campagna, and may refer to the tragically early death of Adonis.
