"Acis, Galatea, and Polyphemus" is a painting by the French Baroque artist Nicolas Poussin, created in the 17th century. This artwork is a visual representation of the mythological love story from Ovid's "Metamorphoses," which narrates the tragic love triangle between the nymph Galatea, her mortal lover Acis, and the jealous cyclops Polyphemus.

Poussin, known for his classical approach to painting and his emphasis on clarity, order, and harmony, depicts this mythological scene with a focus on the dramatic moment when Polyphemus discovers the lovers. The painting is characterized by Poussin's meticulous attention to detail, his use of rich, subdued colors, and his ability to convey emotion through the careful arrangement of figures and landscape elements.

The composition typically features Galatea and Acis in a tender embrace, unaware of the looming threat of Polyphemus, who is often depicted in the background, filled with rage and jealousy. The cyclops is traditionally shown about to hurl a massive boulder at the unsuspecting Acis, an act that will ultimately lead to the young lover's death and transformation into a stream.

"Acis, Galatea, and Polyphemus" by Nicolas Poussin is an exemplary work of French Baroque art, showcasing the artist's skill in bringing classical mythology to life through painting. The work is celebrated for its emotional depth and for Poussin's ability to capture the intensity of the narrative through a harmonious and balanced composition. It remains an important piece within Poussin's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
