"Perseus frees Andromeda" is a 1760 drawing by French artist Noël Hallé, currently held in the Städel Museum. The artwork depicts the classical myth of Perseus saving Andromeda from a sea monster, Cetus. The dynamic composition uses hatching and shading to build a sense of depth and drama, emphasizing the heroic struggle. This drawing is a testament to Hallé's skill in capturing the essence of a pivotal moment from Greek mythology in a single, powerful image.
