Gorgeous! I love this image. And I love this story. The Neo-Platonists turned it into an allegory about the dangers of self-knowledge since Narcissus was destroyed when he came to "Know himself". That's the line in Ovid "se cognoscit". In Greek (pardon my lack of a Greek keyboard) "gnothi seauton" is the phrase written over the entrance to the sanctum at Delphi. "Know Yourself!"
