"Orestes and the Erinyes" is a symbolist painting by French artist Gustave Moreau, created between 1875 and 1893. This work is part of Moreau's exploration of classical mythology and biblical themes, which he often infused with a mystical and dreamlike quality. The painting depicts the ancient Greek myth of Orestes, the son of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra, who is pursued by the Erinyes, also known as the Furies, as punishment for the murder of his mother.

In the myth, Orestes is driven to matricide by the need to avenge his father's death. The Erinyes, ancient chthonic deities of vengeance, then hound him relentlessly for his crime, embodying the torment of guilt and the inescapability of divine retribution. Moreau's interpretation of this dramatic encounter is rich with psychological depth and intricate detail, characteristic of his symbolist approach.

The painting is notable for its intense emotional expression and the elaborate, decorative style that Moreau was known for. The artist's use of color, intricate patterns, and the haunting depiction of the Erinyes contribute to the overall atmosphere of the piece. "Orestes and the Erinyes" is a prime example of Moreau's fascination with the supernatural and the inner workings of the human psyche, themes that are recurrent in his body of work.

Gustave Moreau's "Orestes and the Erinyes" is housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France, where it continues to captivate audiences with its enigmatic beauty and its portrayal of the eternal struggle between human actions and divine will. The painting stands as a testament to Moreau's unique vision and his contribution to the Symbolist movement in late 19th-century French art.
