Our group is based on the terracotta model presented by the sculptor at the Salon of 1786, with its counterpart, L'enlèvement d'Orithie par Borée (The Abduction of Orithia by Boreas). The model was also distributed in cookie by the Sèvres manufactory, as well as in bronze, such as a model similar to ours now in the Petit Palais (SDUT1332).
