A reproduction of Nicolas Poussin's masterpiece "Midas and Bacchus" of about 1630. This is the French master's rendition of the famous story found in Ovid's Metamorphoses in which the god Bacchus granted the wish of the king of Phrygia. He desired that everything he touched would turn to gold. Granted, the wish became a curse and Poussin renders the scene when the sorrowful king begs the God to remove the gift. The original is in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich, Germany.
