In Nineteenth Century Art: A Critical History, Stephen Eisenman compares a painting by this artist with a "parallel surrender to nature," Mikhail Vrubel's Pan.

After turning to color painting, he depicted a hill covered in colorful flowers on which Galatea sleeps as the title figure peers over the ridge at her. For 10 points, name this French symbolist painter of The Cyclops.
