Created around 1760, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 187 x 247 cm and is currently housed in the State Open-air Museum Oranienbaum in Lomonossov, Russia.

From the delicate folds of Selene's flowing gown to the intricate rendering of animals such as sheep and stags surrounding them, every element contributes to creating a visually stunning tableau. The soft hues used by Torelli further enhance the dreamy quality of this piece. The pastel colors blend harmoniously with wisps of clouds that float above them while angels and seraphs hover in celestial bliss above their heads. Overall, "Selene et Endymion" exemplifies Torelli's mastery in capturing both beauty and emotion within his art. This remarkable painting transports viewers into a world where mythology intertwines with human desires – an enduring testament to Torelli's talent as an artist during Italy's rococo
