In Schalcken’s version of this tragic tale, Cephalus cradles his wife in his arms as she expires on the forest floor. Recent conservation treatment has uncovered the artist’s graphic depiction of Procris’s wounds, which had been painted over at a later point in accordance with Victorian sensitivities. Alongside this realistic depiction of the body, the work displays Schalcken’s trademark attention to refined effects of illumination and luxurious textiles.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/437633\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - Cephalus and Procris\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Godfried Schalcken","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49887621185779,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (25 1\/2\" x 31 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887621218547,"sku":null,"price":1320.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (16 1\/8\" x 19 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887621251315,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (19 3\/4\" x 24 1\/4\")","offer_id":49887621284083,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (24 1\/4\" x 29 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887621316851,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (31 1\/4\" x 38 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887621349619,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (37 1\/2\" x 46 1\/4\")","offer_id":49887621382387,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (44 1\/8\" x 54 1\/8\")","offer_id":49887621415155,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (53\" x 65 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887621447923,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/CephalusandProcris.jpg?v=1783920156","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/cephalus-and-procris","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
