Description of the painting at the Tretyakov gallery: "The subject of this unfinished painting is the artist’s fantasy on several Greek myths. Apollo, the god of the sun, art, music and poetry, is playing music along with his favorites in nature's lap. Ivanov said he wanted to portray “nudity instead of a life class”, in other words, to combine classical beauty with a lively romantic feeling. He makes studies from classic sculptures (for example, the head of Apollo of the Belvedere or a bas-relief depicting sleeping Endymion), but he tries to animate the images filling them with warmth and light."
