Henri-Pierre Picou: The Birth of Pindar

Picou focused his work on mythological, historical, and allegorical scenes. He was an academic painter who studied with Delaroche and Gleyre. Together with several others, including Gérôme, he founded the "Neo-Grec" school, an extension of Neoclassicism.

Pindar (522-443 BC) was an ancient Greek lyric poet.
