"Alpheus and Arethusa" is a notable painting by Eustache Le Sueur, a prominent French painter of the 17th century, who was a key figure in the French classical style that sought to reflect the ideals of clarity, harmony, and restraint. This artwork, created in the mid-17th century, is a vivid representation of the mythological story from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where Alpheus, a river god, falls in love with the nymph Arethusa but she transforms into a stream to escape his advances. The painting is celebrated for its delicate portrayal of the figures and the landscape, embodying the classical spirit of balance and beauty that Le Sueur was known for.

Le Sueur's mastery in depicting the human form and his ability to convey narrative through art is evident in "Alpheus and Arethusa." The composition skillfully balances the dramatic intensity of the chase and the serene beauty of the natural setting. This work is a testament to Le Sueur's expertise in handling both mythological subjects and landscape, making it a significant piece in the study of 17th-century French painting.

The painting not only showcases Le Sueur's technical skill and aesthetic sensibilities but also offers insight into the cultural and artistic interests of the period, where mythological and allegorical subjects were often used to explore human emotions and ideals. "Alpheus and Arethusa" remains an important work for understanding the evolution of French art and the classical tradition that influenced European painting well beyond the 17th century.
