The artwork is a printed reproduction on canvas of an original oil painting on canvas that has been created by an artist whose signature does not appear on the artwork and who at the present time remains unknown.  The figures depicted in the artwork are Apollo at a young age and four or five of the nine divinities known as the Muses.  The muses were created by Zeus with the Titaness Mnemosyne, who may be the figure dressed in blue.  The Muses were half-sisters to Apollo.
 
The figures in the artwork are similar in style to the figures painted by a group of 19th Century English artists known as the Pre-Raphaelites. The painting may be a reproduction after one of these artists' works. Two noted Pre-Raphaelite artists who you may wish to view for comparison are Daniel Gabriel Rossetti and John Everett Millais. The numbers stamped on the reverse of the stretcher bars and frame are reference to the stock numbers for the frame and artwork. There is no information regarding the gallery or manufacturer of the artwork. The artwork may have been created as a lithographic or gicle'e print on canvas.
