"Drie gratiën" is a 1833 engraving by Etienne Acille Réveil, a French artist known for his Neoclassical works. The piece depicts the three Graces, goddesses of beauty, charm, and pleasure, in a delicate line drawing style. The central figure appears to be gracefully touching the chin of the Grace on her right, while the Grace on the left gestures with her right hand toward the other two. A fourth figure, perhaps Eros, the god of love, sits at their feet. This engraving, with its emphasis on classical subject matter and elegant lines, is a testament to the enduring influence of Neoclassicism in the 19th century.
