"Orpheus and Eurydice" is a notable work by the Italian Mannerist painter Niccolò dell'Abbate (1509–1571), who was part of the School of Fontainebleau and known for his elegant and mythological scenes. The painting depicts the tragic story from Greek mythology of the musician Orpheus and his wife Eurydice. According to the myth, after Eurydice's untimely death, Orpheus descends into the underworld to plead with Hades and Persephone for her return. His music softens the hearts of the gods, and they allow Eurydice to follow him back to the living world on the condition that he does not look back at her until they have both reached the surface. Tragically, Orpheus turns to look at Eurydice just before they reach the light of day, causing her to vanish back into the underworld forever.

Dell'Abbate's rendition of this poignant moment is characterized by his graceful figures and soft, pastoral landscapes, which were typical of his work and influential in the development of French art during the 16th century. The painting is a reflection of the Mannerist style, which is known for its artificial elegance, elongated proportions, and sophisticated allegory. "Orpheus and Eurydice" by Niccolò dell'Abbate is a significant example of the cultural exchange between Italy and France during the Renaissance and illustrates the enduring appeal of classical mythology as a subject for art.

The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, and its current location may vary as it could be part of a private collection or housed in a museum with a collection of Renaissance art. The work is an important piece within dell'Abbate's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Mannerist aesthetics and the narrative interpretation of mythological subjects during the Renaissance period.
