Narcissus at the Fountain

XVIII century. Grey-brown wash, Black chalk.
Not on display

Seated beneath some trees and leaning on his right arm, Narcissus contemplates his reflection in the water of the fountain. Given its neoclassical character, it must date back to the final years of the 18th century.
