The story
A band of laughing nymphs has caught a satyr and is hauling him, half-delighted and half-alarmed, toward the cool of the pool — a moment of pure mythological mischief. Bouguereau was the great virtuoso of the French Academy, and here his flawless finish makes flesh look warm and water look wet; you can almost hear the splashing. Scorned by the modernists in his own century and adored again in ours, his nymphs are the height of academic myth-painting — sensuous, playful, and technically dazzling.
