The artist’s use of delicate shading brings dimensionality to the figures while maintaining the quiet restraint characteristic of the period.

Rather than idealized grandeur, the work favors intimacy, with subtle gestures and expressions suggesting human connection as much as symbolic meaning. The print reflects the era’s interest in reproducing classical subjects in an accessible form, allowing images to circulate more widely through the medium of print.
