DescriptionParis and Oenone sit together on a boulder next to a stream, pieces of cloth are elegantly draped beneath them and in the boughs of a tree above, creating a comfortable shelter in the landscape. Paris is turned away, carving the name of Oenone in the truck of the tree next to them. Oenone watches his work, one bangled arm gesturing outward.
