"Liriope Bringing Narcissus before Tiresias" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Italian artist Giulio Carpioni, created in the 1660s. The painting depicts a scene from Ovid's "Metamorphoses," where the nymph Liriope, mother of Narcissus, presents her son to the blind seer Tiresias to learn his fate. Carpioni, known for his work in the Venetian Baroque tradition, illustrates this mythological moment with a dynamic composition and rich color palette characteristic of the period.

The artwork captures the dramatic encounter as Tiresias prophesies that Narcissus will live a long life, "if he never knows himself." This cryptic prediction foreshadows the tragic story of Narcissus, who falls in love with his own reflection and ultimately perishes because of his unrequited self-love. Carpioni's interpretation of the tale is notable for its emotional intensity and the skillful rendering of the figures, which showcase his mastery of anatomy and expression.

"Liriope Bringing Narcissus before Tiresias" is an example of Carpioni's mythological subjects, which often explored themes of love, beauty, and tragedy. His work is appreciated for its contribution to the Baroque movement in Italy and its influence on later generations of artists. The painting remains an important piece within Carpioni's oeuvre, reflecting the artistic and cultural interests of the 17th century.
