The hooded man is possibly Hephaestus, and the women most likely Helios sister Eos, Hyacinthus and Marpessa both Apollos loves. The picture is beautifully painted and in excellent condition, the surface has some age related craquelure and one tiny restoration to one of the horses. On the back is some old chalk writing , Sainsbury 104.
