"Les Bains d'Apollon," a print by French artist Jean-Baptiste Rigaud (1681-1812), depicts a serene garden scene. The central feature is a grand fountain with several figures, likely representing the god Apollo, the Greek god of music, poetry, and the sun. The image captures a moment of leisure, with people relaxing and conversing amidst the greenery, reflecting a popular 18th-century pastime. The meticulously detailed trees, ornate fountain, and well-dressed figures create a sense of elegance and tranquility. The composition emphasizes the symmetrical layout of the gardens, further enhancing the feeling of order and harmony.
