This is a painting by François Gérard.
I like this one the best because it really depicts the intimate bond between the two lovers. Daphinis is tenderly about to adorn the head of his love with a halo of flowers, while she rests so trustingly on his knee. Their intertwined closeness is the perfect portrayel of their indefinate bond.
I also really like the colors in this picture. The blue ocean and the yellow sky contrast so nicely with Daphinis' red cloak.
