Visual Composition and Subject Matter

The artwork is a triptych titled The Argonauts, created between 1949 and 1950. The composition features a middle panel containing several figures: the poet Orpheus is positioned at the center, with Jason located at his right and the sea god Glaucus at his left. The painting depicts a variety of people in different positions, including individuals who are standing, sitting, or lying down. The scene includes at least 12 people, some of whom are interacting with one another.

The work is an oil on canvas. The imagery is inspired by a dream regarding the heroes of Greek mythology who traveled with Jason in search of the Golden Fleece. The artist originally planned this as a ninth and final triptych titled The Artists, where the left panel would represent painting, the right panel music, and the middle panel poetry.
