		Eastlake worked hard to find a suitably 'classical' treatment of the subject - by his own admission he wanted to impress John Flaxman.
		The painting is, in fact, a tour de force of composition and execution, conceived to draw the attention of the public in a crowded room, and it earned Eastlake the election to Associate member of the Academy - the start of his glittering career in the contemporary art establishment.
