These two images are depictions of "The Death of Procris" in the form of art from the Enlightenment Era. The one on the right was painted by English Victorian Era artist Henrietta Rae. Henrietta mostly painted classical and literary subjects, and she was most famous for painting The Lady With The Lamp. The painting on the left was painted by Benjamin West, an 18th century American painter. Benjamin West was known for his paintings of the Seven Year's and Revolutionary War, and his most famous painting was The Death of General Wolfe. Both paintings have the core of the story within them, with a forest-like setting and a dying Procris in the center along with Cephalus at her side. However, they do have differences that help create different illustrations of the story. For example, the one on the right contains blood, while the other doesn't. This could be that the art on the left shows Procris after she was bandaged up and the "gift" was taken out of her already. Another difference is the amount of accessories present between the two. The Benjamin West decided to include a lot more in the painting. In his art, Both Procris and Cephalus have extra colored garments, and Cephalus's bloodhound and javelin are in sight while these are absent in the other painting. The artist on the right omitted the javelin from the painting, presumably because it is out of view and still inside Procris. Cephalus's eyes are pointed in the direction of Procris's left arm, which is most likely clutching the weapon. Notably about Henrietta Rae's painting is the composition and the shading. She clearly wanted the observer to focus on the subject in the center, which one's eye most likely will gravitate towards; Procris is bright and white while the sides of the painting are darker, making her the star of the painting. Finally, it should be noted that in both paintings, the vegetation was painted around the character(s), and there is a visual of the sky in the distance (this is known as one point perspective). The imagery really emphasizes the foreground, middle ground, and background of each painting and the observer can really get a sense of depth. Overall, these are two wonderful depictions of Ovid's The Death of Procris.
