Apollo schlug die Cither, und Venus bezauberte alles, indem sie dazu einen Tanz aufführte” aus Max Klinger “Amor und Psyche.”

Apollo played the zither and Venus enchanted everyone by performing a dance to it” from Max Klinger’s “Amor and Psyche.”

Framed by two giant pillars strewn with garlands, we see the goddess Venus dancing in a circle; on a daised patform behind her we see Apollo, King of the Gods, seated at a table, holding the zither, wineglass in front of him. At left someone else plays a harp or zither, I think, and various barefoot people, maybe including one with wings, watch on.
