François Chauveau's "Neptunus verleidt Iphimedeia" is a red chalk drawing from 1623-1676 depicting the Roman god Neptune seducing Iphimedeia. The composition includes two cupids pouring water from a basin and a seahorse to the right, alluding to Neptune's domain. This intimate scene, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Chauveau's mastery of red chalk, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing form and emotion.
