介绍（中）	1797年，工业纺织品制造商François Bernard Boyer Fonfrède委托Meynier为他位于图卢兹的家中的一个大房间绘制了九幅以阿波罗和缪斯为主题的画布。梅尼尔在1800年的沙龙上展出了这幅画，但最终只完成了五幅画布，因为他的赞助人没有钱了。这些画作于1824年左右由卡斯泰拉·德·贝伦斯将军安装在瑞士瓦伦里德城堡的大厅里，一直保存到1983年。该团体于2003年被克利夫兰艺术博物馆收购。在这项研究中，抒情诗歌的缪斯埃拉托在她耳边低语时，用爱的箭创作诗歌。作为一名绘图员的典型风格，梅尼尔以一种自信的方式绘制了他的经典人物，在黑色粉笔底画上使用了肌肉发达的墨水轮廓。对白色水粉画的自由使用赋予了场景绘画和阳光的质感。这幅画用黑色粉笔画成正方形，以便于转移设计，但尽管如此，艺术家还是对最终的构图进行了几次调整。在绘画，梅尼尔显著增加了树叶的数量，在人物周围形成了一个羽毛状的绿色框架。水池的下边缘也增加了倒影，倾倒的花篮被七弦琴扶正并放在左侧。
介绍（英）	In 1797 François-Bernard Boyer-Fonfrède, an industrial textile manufacturer, commissioned Meynier to paint nine canvases featuring Apollo and the Muses for a large room in his home in Toulouse. Meynier exhibited the painting based on this drawing at the Salon of 1800 but ultimately only completed five canvases, as his patron ran out of money. The paintings were installed in the hall of Wallenried Castle, Switzerland by General Castella de Berlens around 1824, where they remained until 1983. The group was acquired by the Cleveland Museum of Art in 2003. In this study, Erato, the muse of lyrical poetry, writes verses using Love's arrow as he whispers in her ear. Typical of his style as a draftsman, Meynier sketched in his classicizing figures in a confident manner, using a muscular ink outline over a black chalk underdrawing. A liberal use of white gouache lends the scene a painterly and sunlit quality. The drawing is squared in black chalk to facilitate the transfer of the design, but, nonetheless, the artist made several adjustments to the final composition. In the painting, Meynier significantly increases the amount of foliage, creating a feathery green frame around the figures. Reflections were also added to the pool along the lower margin and the toppled basket of flowers was righted and placed on the left side, by the lyre.
