A painting of a seated male nude. The dark-haired man is sitting with his legs folded to his left, leaning on his right hand and he is gazing at his reflection in an abstract black pool on the bottom of the painting. This man is the mythological figure of Narcissus. According to Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Narcissus was condemned by the gods to look forever at his own reflection. This was his punishment for scorning the nymph Echo. Part of the background is a playful representation of foliage. Abstract, white and dark green color fields are used to create depth.
