Surprised while bathing in a secluded pool, a ring of nymphs turns on the satyr who spied on them and tries to drag him into the cold water. William-Adolphe Bouguereau built the interlocking poses from careful studies of models and showed it at the 1873 Salon. It later hung in the bar of New York's Hoffman House Hotel.
