Sully filled the composition with attributes of blithe family life: the spray of ivy clinging to the wall is the emblem of a faithful wife; the scene on the urn--Hermes bringing the infant Dionysus to be nurtured by the nymphs--alludes to the duties of motherhood; the boy's foot lightly resting on his dog connotes fidelity and loyalty.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/12693\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - Mother and Son\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomas Sully","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49888228540659,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (57\" x 45 3\/8\")","offer_id":49888228573427,"sku":null,"price":3750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (20\" x 15 7\/8\")","offer_id":49888228606195,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (24 1\/2\" x 19 1\/2\")","offer_id":49888228638963,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (30 1\/8\" x 23 7\/8\")","offer_id":49888228671731,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (38 7\/8\" x 31\")","offer_id":49888228704499,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (46 5\/8\" x 37\")","offer_id":49888228737267,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (54 7\/8\" x 43 3\/4\")","offer_id":49888228770035,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (65 7\/8\" x 52 1\/4\")","offer_id":49888228802803,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/MotherandSon.jpg?v=1789497622","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/mother-and-son","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
