a cloth that drapes over his waist. Three
water nymphs lie around him. The hold Hylas and embrace his limbs. The water nymphs
appear as women: they wear flowers in their hair
and they each wear a cloth that wraps over one of their shoulders. A muscular man,
identified as Hercules, stands in the background.
