The image depicts a classical scene with various figures that appear to be engaged in a dramatic interaction. To the left, two figures are seated on a raised platform, one in a position that suggests regal or judicial authority as they are elevated and the other seems to engage in conversation or plead with the seated figure. Beside them stand bearers holding what appears to be flame-like objects. Central to the image, a group of figures interact aggressively. A person is being pulled by the arm by another figure who appears to be leading the person away or presenting them to the seated figure, while a third person is pulling back on their garment, possibly in an attempt to impede their progress or in an act of confrontation. On the far right, a lone figure stands in a contemplative or witnessing pose, separated from the main action. The scene is detailed, with attention to the drapery of the clothing and the physical expressions of the characters, evoking a narrative of conflict, accusation, or judgement.

At the bottom of the image, there's a caption, "La Calomnie, peinte par Apelles," indicating that the illustration refers to "The Calumny," a work attributed to the ancient Greek painter Apelles. Following the caption, there's a note mentioning "dessin de Raphael," which signifies that this scene could be based on a design by the Renaissance artist Raphael. Further text credits the work to Charles Nicolas Cochin and states it was etched by or for Nicolas Le Sueur. This suggests that the image is an interpretation of a historical subject translated through the work of several prominent artists over time.

On the right, two figures stand within a glowing aura. One appears to be reaching out in a gesture of display or revelation.

The style is reminiscent of classical art, with figures draped in togas and expressive poses. There are hatching marks throughout, typical of engraving, used to create depth and tone. Text underneath describes the source of the image.

The image is an etching based on Raphael's design. It depicts a scene from the painting "Calumny by Apelles." The composition includes several figures in a classical style, with intricate details and a sense of depth.

Here's a breakdown of the scene:

  • Central Group: The main focus is a figure, possibly Innocence or a similar character, being dragged down, while other figures, representing Envy and Falsehood, are trying to suppress her. A figure is holding a torch, symbolizing Ignorance or Anger.
  • Court Scene: On the left side, there is a figure seated on a throne, likely representing a judge or a figure of authority, being influenced by others, potentially Malice and Deceit, who appear to be whispering in their ears.
  • Naked Figure: On the right side, there's a nude figure emerging from a cave-like space, possibly representing Truth, whose presence is gradually being revealed.

The print has text below, which translates to: "Calumny painted by Apelles, design by Raphael, which is in the Cabinet of Mr. Crozat, engraved in copper by Charles Nicolas Cochin, and in wood by Nicolas le Sueur." This indicates that the print is a copy of Raphael's design, originally based on the theme and composition of the classical painting "Calumny by Apelles."

The image is an etching depicting a scene from Greek mythology titled "La Calomnie peinte par Apelles," which translates to "Calumny painted by Apelles." The artwork is based on a painting by Apelles, a famous Greek painter from the 4th century BC. The scene illustrates the concept of calumny, or false accusation, through a series of allegorical figures.

Here is a detailed summary of the figures from left to right:

  1. Envy: The first figure on the left is a man with a gaunt appearance, holding a torch. He represents Envy, which is often depicted as a thin, emaciated figure.

  2. Calumny: The central figure is a woman being led by Envy. She represents Calumny, or false accusation. She is typically shown as a beautiful woman to symbolize the deceptive nature of false accusations.

  3. Fraud: Next to Calumny is a woman holding a lighted torch. She represents Fraud, which often accompanies false accusations.

  4. Ignorance: Following Fraud is a woman with her hands over her ears, symbolizing Ignorance, which is blind to the truth.

  5. Suspicion: The next figure is a woman looking back over her shoulder, representing Suspicion, which is always looking for something to doubt.

  6. Repentance: The final figure is a woman dressed in dark robes, looking back with a regretful expression. She represents Repentance, which comes too late to prevent the harm caused by calumny.

In the background, there is a figure emerging from a cloud or smoke, which could represent the truth or the consequences of calumny being revealed.

The etching is based on a design by Raphael, which is in the Cabinet de M. Crozat, and was engraved by Charles Nicolas Cochin and engraved on copper by Nicolas le Sueur. The artwork is a visual representation of the destructive power of false accusations and the various elements that contribute to them.
