"Procris Blessee Par Cephale Son Amant. Il Est Occupe A Retirer Le Javelot ; L'amour Aux Genoux De Procris Se Desole Et Eteint Son Flambeau" is an 18th-century oil painting by French artist Hugues Taraval. Created in 1766, the painting is a visual representation of the tragic mythological tale of Cephalus and Procris from Ovid's "Metamorphoses." The artwork captures the poignant moment when Cephalus, Procris's lover, accidentally wounds her with a javelin, a gift from the goddess Diana that never misses its mark. In the painting, Cephalus is depicted in a state of distress as he attempts to remove the javelin from Procris's body, while Cupid, the god of love, kneels beside Procris, lamenting the tragic turn of events and extinguishing his torch, symbolizing the end of love and life.

Taraval, a student of François Boucher and a recipient of the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1756, was known for his historical and mythological scenes. His work is characterized by its dramatic intensity and emotional depth, which is evident in this painting. The piece is a fine example of the Rococo style, which was prevalent during the period, showcasing Taraval's skillful use of color, composition, and the interplay of light and shadow to convey the tragic narrative.

"Procris Blessee Par Cephale Son Amant..." is an important work in Taraval's oeuvre, reflecting the artist's ability to evoke pathos and engage the viewer with the timeless themes of love, loss, and the capricious nature of fate. The painting is a testament to the enduring appeal of classical mythology as a subject for artistic expression during the 18th century and contributes to our understanding of Rococo art and its cultural context.
