"Homer's Odyssey" is a drawing by Giovanni Battista Cipriani, a prominent Italian artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The drawing, likely made with pen and ink on paper, depicts a scene from Homer's epic poem, the Odyssey, which tells the story of Odysseus's journey home after the Trojan War. The work's composition, which features a group of figures arranged in a classical setting, showcases Cipriani's mastery of Neoclassical style. The Art Institute of Chicago houses this artwork, which measures 426 x 261 millimeters.
