A painting of a sleeping blonde man, with his arms outstretched. The background of the painting above his arms shows the dark blue of the night sky. The background of the picture below his arms show a wooded scene with to the right a winged cupid walking a path with his back to the viewer. Classical greek mythology tells the story of Endymion and Selene, the goddess of the moon. Selene fell in love with the beautiful Endymion and every night she would visit him while he was sleeping, accompanied by Eros/cupid. To be able to do so always and without end she asked his father Zeus to let him sleep forever. Zeus granted her wish and gave Endymion eternal sleep.
