Cymon and Iphigenia(1884)
Frederic Leighton’s Cymon and Iphigenia (1884) depicts a scene from Boccaccio’s The Decameron, where Cymon, a coarse and uncultured man, is transformed upon seeing the sleeping Iphigenia. Captivated by her serene beauty, Cymon’s awe symbolizes the transformative power of love and aesthetic admiration.
