"The Chariot of Galathee" is a print by French artist Jean François Janinet, who lived from 1752 to 1814. The print depicts the sea nymph Galathea riding on the backs of two dolphins, guided by Cupid who is holding a sail. The print, housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, is a beautiful example of Janinet's work, known for its delicate lines and soft colors. The scene is set against a backdrop of a bright sky, adding to the overall sense of lightness and beauty.
