Our Collection Online Early Career Research Fellow in Mythological Subjects, Dr Melissa L Gustin talks a bit about Endymion by George Frederic Watts.

This painting was started as early as the 1860s, but towards the end of his life, in about 1903, George pulled it back out and finished it in a great hurry. The painting features Endymion, an ancient Greek prince, one of George's many mythological subjects.
