Description:

This classical painting depicts a scene from mythology featuring the giant Orion, who is blind, being guided by a smaller figure, likely a young boy or dwarf named Cedalion, on his shoulders. Orion is depicted as a muscular, nude figure striding purposefully through a landscape. He carries a quiver of arrows slung over his shoulder and uses a staff for guidance. Cedalion points ahead, presumably towards the rising sun, which Orion seeks to restore his sight. The landscape is lush and varied, with trees, rolling hills, and a body of water visible in the distance. In the upper part of the painting, two figures, one appearing to be Diana (Artemis) and another figure, are seated on clouds, observing the scene below. The sky is a mix of blue and white clouds, suggesting the early morning light. The overall mood is one of determined journeying and the hope of healing, set within a classical and somewhat idealized natural world.
