Add a one-line explanation of what this file represents

Nominally the Greek Polyenos and the Trojan Chryseis. Polyenos does not in fact figure as her lover in the Iliad or Odyssey, and is the artist's invention.

Though the males in these engravings usually have a six pack and over muscled back (drawn from the Farnese Hercules) - though not quite to the extreme shown here - , this image is unusual among them for hiding the man's erect penis.
