Orpheus charming animals

Orpheus charming animals is a 1626 painting by Roelant Savery. It is housed in the Louvre Museum and measures 0.42 meters in width and 0.32 meters in height.

The painting depicts a pastoral scene with various animals gathered together. In the foreground, there are several horses, a deer-like creature, and a bovine animal. A lion or similar large cat is partially visible in the lower left. The background features a classical-style ruin, possibly a temple or similar structure, set against a landscape with hills and a sky filled with birds. The overall style is characteristic of a 17th-century Dutch landscape painting, with attention to detail in both the animals and the architectural elements.
