"Cephalus en Procris" is a 16th-century engraving by Etienne Delaune, depicting a scene from Greek mythology. The artwork shows the lovers Cephalus and Procris, who were cursed by the goddess Diana and became separated. In the image, Cephalus is shown running away from Procris, who is holding a spear, while Diana stands in the background, with her dog by her side. This small-scale engraving exemplifies the intricate detail and fine lines characteristic of Delaune's work.
